Whale Watching Around Victor Harbor, South Australia
Spent a few days in early July watching the early season whales at Bashams Beach on the Fleurieu Peninsula. Tried to select some footage from quite a lot of shots of, mostly, black lines on the horizon! Shot with a Sony Alpha-57 and kit 55-200 lens.
Whales, Victor Harbor, South Australia
Whaling history in Victor Harbor, Fleurieu Peninsula, South Australia. The history of whaling in the Victor Harbor area of the Southern Fleurieu Peninsula began at The Bluff where the first whalers and sealers settled from the mid to late 1700's and set up stations and lookouts. The peak of the Bluff is about 150 metres above sea level and affords a view of the sea horizon for more than 50km. This made it easy for the naked eye to spot whales within 10 km so the long boats could be launched to row out and harpoon the whales.

Description
Victor Harbor - South Australia
Victor Harbor is a town in South Australia on the south coast of the Fleurieu Peninsula, about 80 km south of the centre of Adelaide. The city is the largest population centre on the peninsula, with an economy based upon agriculture, fisheries and various industries. It is also a highly popular tourist destination, with the city's population greatly expanded during the summer holidays, usually by Adelaide locals looking to escape the summer heat.
One of the Victor Harbor’s popular site for visitors is Granite Island, which is connected to the mainland by a short tram/pedestrian causeway. The tram service is provided by the Victor Harbor Horse Drawn Tram, one of the very few tram routes remaining in public transit service. Granite Island is home to a large colony of little penguins which are a popular attraction on the island. These penguins shelter on the island during the night, departing in the morning to hunt for fish before returning at sunset.
