Southend

The small coastal township of Southend was the first seaport in the Limestone coast.  First known as Grey town (named after Governor Grey) in 1846, between 1875 - 1879 it was known as Rivoli Bay South & then changed back to Grey town until 1979, when it was officially named Southend.  It is now a working crayfish port & holiday village.  Few houses, General store, caravan park & bush camp.   We spent one night in the National park campsite & one in caravan park.
