Tumby

Tumby Just right at the end of Tumby’s main street sparkles the ocean. Clear, clean Gulf waters carry an abundance of marine life and seafoods.

Flowing into the Bay, it has defined the history, and flavours the present of this uniquely beautiful township. It brought the first settlers keen to take advantage of the farming potentials, and it continues to attract people here. In this temperate climate, people, agriculture and farming flourish, and the area offers a coastal playground for boating, fishing and beach enjoyments, with urban con

venience settled within a peaceful rural spaciousness. It’s a welcoming environment for travellers who choose Tumby as a base from which to appreciate the diversity of Eyre Peninsula experiences and pursuits within close range of the town’s comforts. For modern pioneers seeking a lifestyle change, it also provides rich potentials for a safe and healthy prosperity, free of pressures and encroachments. Whether it is holiday or haven you have in mind, Tumby Bay offers a friendly and peaceful opportunity to relax and enjoy with the locals.

Here's why 'the island' is called 'the island.' Captured yesterday at 3.30pm just after high tide. The new causeway culvert is certainly letting through a lot more water.

Thanks for the national publicity in the Australian. Again.

Creativity connects us, especially in times of uncertainty and emergency. And as the impact of Australias bushfire crisis continues, arts and creativity will be crucial to the recovery of our communities.

PRETTY TOWN. PRETTY BAY

Ah this little town of Tumby
This pretty little town shining
Nestled aside a pretty pretty bay
Town now so full of colour and pride
With walls and walls of murals
Tall white silos like canvas painted now

Upon these silos so grand, so tall
A scene of which all Tumbian's know
When every summer comes around
A scene of two young local lads
Just doing what a hot summers day
Demands, as kids, what must be done

Tumby your street art bright and spectacular
Displayed and recorded on camera and cam
So people that come to see can take away
Your pride recorded for the world
Your endevour to better your pretty town
To share your paradise you know so well

Your hard work, your forward planning
Made these canvases for those who come
So your town and district pride
Can shine from here, a bright light for all
As you have already shown you stand proud
You stand tall, true Aussies to the soul

Meaty Uppercuts Final

Thanks to Smokey Uppercuts for visiting Tumby on the weekend as part of the Adelaide Guitar Festival.

Seabreeze Guitar Festival

Here's why 'the island' is called 'the island.' Captured yesterday at 3.30pm just after high tide. The new causeway culvert is certainly letting through a lot more water.

Great to have the Twice as Nice Gallery Cafe in back town for a few days, farewell and remember, you're always welcome back! Folks, get behind Lorry and his wonderful project as he travels the country.
