Goolwa

My favourite place while visiting this area had to be the Goolwa Barrages.

" The Goolwa Barrages comprise five barrage structures in the channels separating Lake Alexandrina from the sea at the mouth of the River Murray and the Coorong in South Australia. They were constructed principally to reduce salinity levels in the lower reaches of the River Murray, Lake Alexandrina and Lake Albert, but also to stabilise the river level, for both upstream irrigation and pumping."

The seals the live here were delightful. Such fun watching them playing. Was also thrilled at the birdlife here. Spotted some Great Crested Grebe. First time I have seen them.

Plus, it's a very pretty picnic spot. Ticked a lot of boxes for me.Weiterlesen
