Sunset in Robe
The historic seaside resort town of Robe oozes charm, set amid stunning beaches, rugged cliffs and tranquil lakes. Robe was once one of the largest ports of the Limestone Coast in South Australia and remains proud of its shipping history, with museums, cottages and historic walking trails bringing the local maritime culture to life.

You can pick up a scenic self drive map from the Visitors Information Centre in town and visit the many points of historical interest such as:
Caledonian Inn Robe
Robe House
Customs House, Robe
The Obelisk, Robe
A popular activity at any time of year, in and around Robe is to four wheel drive along the 12 Km fabulous Long Beach. Here you can swim, surf, fish or take a long walk.

Guichen Bay is also very popular for swimming, fishing, sailing or kayaking. If you have no luck with the fishing, go to the Robe Marina at Lake Butler and watch the catch of the day around noon.

Robe was one of those places that I could easily understand why people would flock to for a seaside holiday. It exuded so much charm and it’s beaches were beautiful.

April 21, 2016Hey Kathy, all of my replies to you failed from my wordpress account so I’ve had topost back here. Hopefully they won’t be duplicated. We actually stayed in Southend which is near Beachport (near Robe). I loved this whole area.
Kathy
April 21, 2016Yes I remember Beachport well with the bicycle tree in the middle of the roundabout. Beautiful area. :)

April 21, 2016The entire Limestone Coast was very pretty, but Robe was a very enchanting place. I loved South Australia as a travel destination. :)

April 21, 2016One thing that really differentiates Nth Qld with other parts of Australia is the presence of Norfolk Pines. Gosh I love them. Kathy, you have a gift for photographing sunsets girl!
Kathy
April 22, 2016Yes Norfolk Pines do have certain allure about them. I love them too. Thanks for the compliment on my sunset photography – all I do is aim and shoot about a hundred times until I get the perfect colours! :)

April 22, 2016I think Australia should be on everyone’s list but unfortunately it is an expensive travel destination which makes it less attractive than other destinations. I hope you get to visit someday soon! :)
