Tide Clock

The Tide Clock in Port Germein is a remarkable piece of 19th-century engineering, originally constructed near Cockle Spit. This clock-faced tide gauge utilized pulleys and levers to display tidal movements, with an illuminated plexiglass face powered by an oil lamp. Restored and relocated to 31 Esplanade, it now stands as a testament to South Australia's maritime heritage. Visitors can also explore the nearby Port Germein Jetty, the longest wooden jetty in the Southern Hemisphere, offering picturesque views and a glimpse into the town's rich history.
