Streaky Bay National Trust Museum
If Great White Sharks fascinate you, then the Streaky Bay National Trust Museum is the place for you. Find out about them and even 'meet' the people who hunted them, in a rich gallery of local characters.
The museum records the life of Streaky Bay, which has long been a fishing port. It was also a favoured base for shark hunters in the days when it was acceptable to hunt sharks.
You can see much more in the museum, including Plankers, the large blue swimmer crabs that abound in the local waters. See a 1936 Straight Eight Nash car, which carried the first overland mail service from Adelaide to Streaky Bay in 1938.
The museum is housed in a former primary school. In its backyard, there's a collection of agricultural machinery and transport items. There's also an 1886 mud and timber cottage relocated from one of the district’s earliest farms.
