Marion Bay, SA Australia
| Address | Marion Bay
South Australia, Australia |
On the ‘foot’ of Yorke Peninsula, Marion Bay is the gateway to Innes National Park. With surf and swimming beaches, and a variety of fishing available, visitors are sure to enjoy this small town.
Marion Bay has a small population of approximately 130 permanents; this swells to 500-900 during holiday periods. The beaches at Marion Bay offer the best of both worlds - a sheltered swimming beach, popular with families and a surf beach on the other side. Fishing is available for everyone offering boat, jetty, beach, rock and surf fishing.
Being on the foot of the Yorke Peninsula incorporates high winds of south-easterly nature during the summer months. The best times to visit are the months of March, April and May where the winds die down and the seas are calm with a mild temperature. Summer months can become very hot and winters can be bitterly cold. Marion Bay has a moderate rainfall and generally does not receive as much rain as Adelaide or surrounding districts.
