Anglers Anchorage - Baird Bay 50 kms from South of Streaky Bay in the west coast | House in Baird Bay
4 Bedroom House in Wrenfordsley, Baird Bay
Baird Bay (formerly Beard's Bay) is a small fishing village located 50 kilometres (30min) South of Streaky Bay on the west coast of Eyre Peninsula in South Australia. It is situated on the east coast of a bay named Baird Bay which opens into the north end of Anxious Bay.
The towns and the associated bay are named after James Baird, who settled on the shores of Anxious Bay in 1850 before being speared by local Aboriginals on 2 November 1850. Matthew Flinders sailed past in 1802 but was unable to see the bay; he saw only the mouth (entrance) and Jones Island.
Although the township is small, Baird Bay has garnered considerable tourist attention due to its sea lion colony, with local tour guides giving interactive swimming sessions with the sea lions. This has become one of the main tourist attractions on the Eyre Peninsula. The isolated town has very limited facilities, with only a few houses, a camping ground and boat ramp. The nearest town for supplies is Streaky Bay.
Baird Bay is a quiet and tranquil village, there is not enough through traffic in Baird Bay to be of any concern.
Other close tourist attractions are:
*Inselbergs such as Ucontitchie Hill and Murphy's Haystacks
*Westall Way, a coastal drive that takes in the Granites and Smooth Pools
Information and directions to these attractions can be found by googling the above mentioned on the internet, you will find plenty of information and maps directing you to these locations. All located are within easy driving distance of Baird Bay.
The remote waters of Baird Bay are also excellent for recreational fishing, as well as a number of other water based activities such scuba diving and snorkelling. The marine parks located in the bay provide protection for the fish that live and breed in these waters and help to rejuvenate local fish stocks. King George Whiting, Garfish, Tommy Ruff, Australian Salmon, Snook, Trevally, Flathead and Flounder all inhabit the bay in good numbers. The bay can accommodate a small dinghy or larger boat with the beach making for an easy launch and retrieve on a high tide. The fishing outside the bay for the boating enthusiast is exceptional with good numbers of snapper, nannygai, blue morwong, tuna and blue groper. Both School and Gummy Shark are common in the these waters. The awe inspiring rugged coastline that constantly changes from cliffs, to rocks and granite sand beaches is fantastic for some surf fishing and catching that large west coast mulloway, or just relaxing to the sounds of the pounding surf of the southern ocean.
Baird Bay is secluded and ideal for walks in the native bush that borders the back of the village. The area is teeming with native wildlife, kangaroos, emus, reptiles and birdlife, taking you back to nature and providing you with an appreciation for the environment. There are many migratory sea birds that visit the bay, along with some permanent residents like the pelicans who are constantly looking for an easy feed. The area is an ideal location for any bird watching enthusiast who maybe looking for somewhere to stay, close to the birds.
