Aussie towns Goolwa, SA

EING ONLY AN 83km drive south from Adelaide’s CBD, it’s not surprising that Goolwa, on the picturesque Lake Alexandrina in South Australia, has become a desirable and chic holiday destination. The town was declared a State Heritage Area in 1987 and is blessed with impressive, well-preserved mid-nineteenth-century buildings that provide unique insight into the workings of one of Australia’s most important river ports. Goolwa is at the entrance to the Murray and was a vital transport link between the wool shipped downriver from the vast sheep properties of western New South Wales and southern Queensland
