A small west-coast holiday town on Spencer Gulf, well known for its jetty fishing, caravan park and tavern.
Point Turton perches on the western shore of the lower peninsula, looking out over Spencer Gulf. Its jetty is renowned for squid and whiting, and the sheltered bay offers safe swimming and boat launching. A tidy caravan park, a popular tavern with sweeping water views and easy access to the wild west-coast surf beaches make it a comfortable and scenic base for fishers and families.
