Hi all,

This image was recently displayed on the Hema Maps Facebook page, apparently it's in SA. Looks like a nice track, does anyone know where this is?

Some where along the coast? ;-)

Hi Phil

Without known the exact location, I would have a bet either the Eyre Peninsula. The majority of the unreal coastline the further west you travel had large cliffs.

If you get in contact with Hema, they should be able to give you the location.

If you do find out, please let us know.


Cheers

Bit of a long shot Mick O but I think your right.

Overdrawn at the memory bank?

After more searching on Instagram it appears it may be near Port Lowly

Seems to - it does fit with an easterly view from Black Point, taking in the end of Santos's Point Lowly jetty - if so, what a place ! Mobs of snapper live under that 2.4km jetty - years back it was staff only, but if anyone ever gets a chance to fish there, fish heavy and take lots of bait.....its gone in a flash !

Yes, if near Point Lowly, I agree with Darian - east from Black Point, and Santos jetty at Port Bonython (Point Lowly to a local, the Lighthouse is around the corner, as Spencers Gulf goes north to Port Augusta), across Spencers Gulf the Southern Flinders Ranges run north-south.

Yep, coast road to Point lowly that comes out next to the Santos plant. Also where you can go diving or snorkelling with the Cuttlefish.

This following site merely says the photo is of the South Australian coast - but it doesn't say exactly where.
I'd say Mick is correct, somewhere along the Eyre bleep ula.

Photo of coast

Cheers, Ron.

Ha ha! That was supposed to read "peninsula"! Amazing what a simple spelling error can produce! [;-)

Ha ha, good one, Ron.

Never seen you make a spelling error yet! Now I've got something to giggle about, before fronting the "tooth fairy" tomorrow.

Before I saw Ron N's link, I would have said it was leading to the cliffs at Port Gibbon.

I'm glad I ain't too scared to be lazy
