The Garden Island Ships' Graveyard, in the North Arm of the Port Adelaide River, offers paddlers a chance to experience part of South Australia's early maritime history.
The 26 wrecks at Garden Island are part of one of the world's largest and most diverse ships' graveyards. Boasting the remains of sailing ships, steamers, motor vessels, ferries, barges, dredgers and pontoons, the site provides a unique glimpse into our past.
The mudflats the wrecks lay on are bounded by mangroves – one of the few remaining systems in metropolitan Adelaide. This eco-system provides a habitat for dolphins, other marine creatures and bird species, enhancing a recreational paddler's experience.
The trail is marked by three on-water signs near the main group of wrecks, as well as two on-land signs at the Garden Island boat ramp.

The "Gratititude"came ashore during stormy weather on 10th Oct 1892. It now lies embedded in Aberlady's extensive sandbank
Even with the placement of a proper lighthouse on Australia's Northwest Cape many ships wrecked in shallow areas surrounding the cape. This is the Mildura Wreck and can be see clearly at low tide at the very tip of the Northwest Cape. To rectify the ship wreck problem the lighthouse light was moved to a VLF radio tower that was closer to the cape's tip and provided a much higher vantage point for ships to see. Exmouth's lighthouse is no longer in use.
