Germein Bay Jetty

Port Germein Jetty, constructed in 1881 and extended in 1883, is a historic wooden structure that once stood as the longest in the Southern Hemisphere at 1,680 meters. Today, it remains the longest in South Australia at 1,532 meters. The jetty is a focal point for fishing enthusiasts, particularly known for its blue swimmer crabs. Visitors can enjoy leisurely walks along the jetty, taking in panoramic views of Germein Bay and the surrounding Flinders Ranges. The foreshore area offers picnic facilities, a playground, and access to sandy beaches, making it a delightful destination for families and nature lovers. Despite facing challenges from natural events, the jetty continues to be a cherished landmark, reflecting the town's rich maritime heritage.
