Venus Bay

Venus Bay, nestled on South Australia's Eyre Peninsula, is a tranquil coastal town renowned for its fishing and water sports. The sheltered bay offers safe environments for small boat users, with abundant catches of whiting, salmon, garfish, snook, tommy ruff, flathead, and gummy shark. The 100-meter curved jetty, illuminated at night, caters to both commercial and recreational fishermen. The South Head Walking Trail provides breathtaking views of the Great Australian Bight, and the Needle Eye Lookout offers panoramic vistas of the rugged coastline. The Venus Bay Conservation Park, encompassing Weyland Peninsula and seven islands, is home to over 100 bird species, including peregrine falcons and sea eagles. The park also plays a crucial role in the recovery and reintroduction of rare and endangered plants and animals. Local amenities include a general store, café, and a caravan park, making Venus Bay an ideal destination for relaxation and exploration.
