Victor HarborLocated 80 kilometres south of Adelaide. In 1802, Matthew Flinders met the French sailor Nicholas Baudin who was also navigating the waters off the mouth of the Murray Rover. Baudin named this region after the French wanderer Charles Pierre Claret Comte de Fleurieu. Because of its landscape and pure light. The Fleurieu is home to many artists and crafts people who exhibit their works in many local galleries and weekend markets. There is something for everyone in this compact and diverse region. |
