The eastern half of Port Lincoln spreads over the slopes between Kirton Point and Porter Bay. The shoreline is dominated by low bluffs at the base of the slopes, with a few narrow beaches and sand flats at the base of the bluffs. All the beaches are protected from ocean swell and receive only low wind waves. The Parnkalla walking track follows the shore, with a variety of reserves, roads and often commercial activities on the backing slopes. The Kirton Point beach (755) was separated from the main Port Lincoln beach with the construction of the grain loading facilities. It now remains as an impounded 50 m long pocket of high tide sand bordered by the large grain facility and jetty to the west, and the low rocky point on the east. The walking track commences at a car park above the beach. read more
