Spencer Gulf is the westernmost of two large inlets on Australia’s southern coast, facing the Great Australian Bight. The Gulf is 322 km (200 mi) long and 129 km (80 mi) wide at its mouth. The western shore is the Eyre Peninsula, while the eastern side is the Yorke Peninsula, which separates it from the smaller Gulf St Vincent. The largest towns on the gulf are Whyalla, Port Pirie, and Port Augusta. Among smaller towns are Wallaroo and Port Broughton.

Born and raised in Adelaide so it always makes me smile to see things about home.
