Have walked this once and kayaked around another time. There is some convict history at the Flinders Bay Settlement, but it doesn't seem much is known about it. We had a brief look on one visit, but I think the scrub surrounding the shacks beat us.
ReplyDeleteYes, I think it was a probation station back in the days. I guess it is just holiday shacks now as I did not see any one around.
