Stories of Whaling and Shipwrecks

Fleurieu Peninsula

Victor Harbor Walking Tours know where the stories are buried - and some of them are at the bottom of the bay.

Every weekend in June, join a guided walk along the Encounter Bay foreshore that pulls back the curtain on one of the region's most fascinating and lesser-known chapters; the early whaling industry around the Bluff and Granite Island, the whalers who risked everything in these waters, and the shipwrecks that never made it out of the bay.

Accessible, engaging and genuinely surprising - even for locals who think they know this coastline well.
