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.

Port Lincoln is located in SW of Spencer Gulf.

In the old days, yachts used to anchor in the bay in front of the town or tie up to the jetty. Today, some say the marina, located a little south of town, represents the best option for visiting yachts. We disagree. We like the freedom to move around, maybe pop into the yacht club for a beer, or into town for a meal, there are several good spots right off the beach. Just across the channel is Boston Island, and two hours across calm water is the Lincoln National Park.

Spencer Gulf

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.

The first to document these two incredible gulfs was Matthew Flinders in April 1802: ‘Our examination of the Gulf of St Vincent was now finished; and the country round it had appeared to be generally superior to that on the borders of Spencer’s Gulf. Yorke’s Peninsula between them is singular in its form, bearing some resemblance to a very ill-shaped leg and foot.
