The Ferry pulling in at Lucky Bay |
The Lucky Bay to Wallaroo Ferry started running in April 2012 after
closing while the new ferry was being built. Many of the locals seem
to think the ferry is overpriced and something of a waste of money. Now the ferry
doesn't really save you anything when you compare it to flights out of Port Lincoln and
driving around the gulf, via Port Augusta. Given
we were relocating and had a long drive back to Victoria we decided it
was worth go.
When we arrived at Lucky Bay, I was
expecting to find a nice ferry terminal where I could grab a bite to eat
and we would sit and wait. Instead, we found a slapstick shed that even attracts the odd snake, according to the amusing warning sign, asking visitors to close the door. The
ferry was nice and new, all the amenities were clean. There's a cafe
onboard, televisions, tables and
chairs. The rooftop provides a nice view. All things considered, it
was worth the ride!
