Mary Ellis Wreck Beach Lincoln National Park is a located approximately 249 km west of Adelaide and about 9.5 km south of Port Lincoln. It consists of a mainland area on the Jussieu Peninsula on the south eastern tip of Eyre Peninsula and a number of nearby islands. The national park contains significant sites of natural, indigenous and early European heritage. Lincoln National Park overlooks Boston Bay, the largest natural harbour in Australia, with granite headlands, sheltered bays and scenic off­shore islands. On the southern side of the park are the massive, windsculpted sand dunes of the Sleaford-Wanna dune sys­tem and the pounding surf of the South­ern Ocean. The coastline of Jussieu Peninsula and the adjoining islands was first visited Matthew Flinders in 1802 followed by the Baudin expedition to Australia later in that year. A stone obelisk monument known as the Flinders Monument was dedicated at Stamford Hill in 1844 by Sir John Franklin in tribute to Flinders' achievements and is listed as a state heritage place on the South Australian Heritage Register. After the survey by Flinders, the land was settled by a small number of Europeans, mainly along Cape Donington (named after the birthplace of Flinders), where the first grain crop was sown in 1875. The Cape Donington Lighthouse was built in 1905. A hexagonal concrete tower, it stands 32 m high and is still in operation. On 5 April 1907 the ketch Mary Ellis, on its way from Port Adelaide to Venus Bay, got caught in a gale and was wrecked on a beach along Sleaford Bay, now named Mary Ellis Wreck Beach. Despite total destruction of the ship, no casualties were recorded. Footage was taken on a Samsung S24 Ultra Note 10 Plus. Music: The Music Bed, LLC. Subscription License Agreement. 1.
