Things to Do  

Fishing - Must see.. or must do!

Fishing - Must see.. or must do!, Ceduna

 dmirebella Says:  Ceduna is a fisherman's paradise with anglers on Ceduna's jetty frequently catching good hauls of Garfish, Salmon, Snook, Tommy Ruff, Blue Swimmer Crabs and the occasional squid.Ceduna squid makes a good all purpose bait that can be bought from local supermarkets and sports... 

Murat Bay

Murat Bay, Ceduna

 dmirebella Says:  Take a nice stroll to the end of the jetty at Murat Bay, one a nice day - one might get lucky and get a view of the whales as the migrate to warmer waters. Other pastimes include fishing or simply do what I did - grab a book and enjoy the sun . 

Totality

Totality, Ceduna

 Charlie_UK Says:  The rarest, most amazing sight in nature. In reality the moon looked far larger than this. It was the most astonishing, bizarre thing it is possible to imagine. The drop in the light levels was extraordinary. Thankfully there was a gap in the clouds. People on the nearby... 

Totality approaching

Totality approaching, Ceduna

 Charlie_UK Says:  Totality approaches - You can't see the moon, but about 93% of the sun is obscured here, and the light levels have dropped dramatically, but in a very different way to a sunset. It is more like an artificial light being dimmed. It is absolutely bizarre. The clouds were... 

The partial phase

The partial phase, Ceduna

 Charlie_UK Says:  If you want to do this here, you are a bit late! But the Eclipse was a phenomenal experience - see a total eclipse if ever you can. Fortunately, if you are in South Australia there will be ones not so far from Ceduna in 2030 and 2038. The Next Australian one can be seen in...

It's a long way!

It's a long way!, Ceduna

 Charlie_UK Says:  Premier Stateliner run an overnight coach service from Adelaide, nearly 500 miles away. It cost me A$162. The trip takes 11 hours but it is a well equipped coach. 

Warnings Or Dangers  

Protect your eyes!

Protect your eyes!, Ceduna

 Charlie_UK Says:  When looking at the partial phase of an eclipse, do not look directly at the sun. Use proper filters like Mylar (not photographic film, unless it is black and white film, or smoked glass!) or use indirect viewing methods like a pinhole camera. Welders glasses are ok. Always...
