23.01.2022 Favourite Regional Places in SA post # 3 Today we head to Beachport in the south east of SA. It is approximately 385kms from Adelaide and is a beautiful seaside... town. Great for tourists. Great for relaxing. Beachport is home to five State Heritage Places: * The Beachport Jetty - 733 metres in length! * The Mount Graham Homestead - built in 1863 for pastoralist A Johnson. * The former Beachport Customs House - built c.1880 and possibly designed by Colonial Architect Edward J Woods. Constructed of limestone. Customs Office originally used as a check point for goods coming off the jetty by rail. * The Beachport Museum - this was the first meeting place of the Beachport District Council. * The Kangarooo Inn Ruin (just out of the town) Built c.1840s. Hotel built near the original overland track and associated with the drainage operations in the South-East during the 1860s and 1870s. Random rubble stonework. Complex of three buildings and a well. The Beachport Conservation Park is worth a visit - special features include its weathered limestone cliffs and middens - the discarded remains of shellfish left by the Boandik people. The walking trail around Woolley Lake offers panoramic views of the ocean and neighbouring Lake George.
