Rapid Bay (other) Caves in Fleurieu Peninsula SA for Treasure Tuesday

 






Rapid Bay, South Australia, is home to several other caves. Joel had been feeling unwell due to the earlier inclement weather. He was eagerly anticipating a great opportunity to photograph Granite Island before visiting Rapid Bay. Fortunately, his spirits lifted when the clouds began to part at Rapid Bay. I, too, was pleased, as there were new subjects to photograph in this area. I would not have visited had Joel not needed to attend a wedding there. These caves are remarkably large. Unfortunately, the rocky walls exude an odor of urine, a consequence of the actions of some of the local youths.

  1. Yuk! I can imagine the odour. That won't have helped Joel's well-being.

  8. I am also interested in the plants and rocks. The plants are so strange, are they cactus? And all the rocks look nice for a collection.

    1. The plant is called Euphorbia Paralias or called sea spurge. It is considered as pest - an invasive species to Australia Coast.

  12. I would think a sensitive nose is a good thing in your line of work. Also a nuisance. Pictures are great!
