From Largs Pier we headed up the coast. First stop was St Kilda, a small backwater not far from Port Adelaide. It had many mangroves and an adventure playground with a huge slide and a flying fox. Next we headed up the highway with a detour into Port Wakefield which was very quiet but had many nice old houses. Moonta was next, here we did a tour of the old copper mining site by train. Mining stopped in the 1920's but many remnants remain. After visiting a miners cottage and taking a look at Moonta bay we continued on our way, stopping at Wallaroo to have a look at the huge wheat silos and a large chimney left from copper mining days. This place has a nice bay but a horrible new marina. From here we went through Kadina and Port Broughton before stopping at Port Pirie for the night.
