Ardrossan and the other areas of the YP were part of the 2026 Federation of Motoring Club's " Going North 2026" 8 day tour. Commencing at Willaston and visiting Clare, Burra, Peterborough,, Quorn, Hawker, Port Augusta and Port Pirie, the 1000km trip saw the 40 plus classic cars and caravans stop at the Kadina club rooms of the NYPVVMCC for lunch before the Friday drive to Ardrossan. Great reports on our local Ardrossan Caravan Park as a result of service and facilities enjoyed by the visitors.
Before the Saturday excursion, the group met up at the clifftop for a photo before travelling to the Harry Butler Memorial and the Bublacowie Military Museum. If you have not visited it lately, get down there; it's amazing! Members from the SYP Historic Vehicle Club dealt with suppiles of food for the lunch. Well done
Friday night meals at the Ardrossan Hotel Motel were top class; the food from a wide choice of items were enjoyed by all, as was the friendly service. 😂 Thanks from the local organisers for the help provided by the VIO staff. All in all, a great advert the town and the YP.😀

Algal Bloom Update as of 5th April 26.

Yorke Peninsula sites to record zero levels include Ardrossan.

Latest available results from the week beginning April 5 show the 21 metropolitan onshore sites continue to record zero or low levels of Karenia.

Zero levels of Karenia were detected at 15 of the 21 sites, including Port River Outer Harbour Boat Ramp, Port River St Kilda Boat Ramp, Port River Garden Island Boat Ramp, Port River Dock One, West Lakes Exit, West Lakes Bartley Tce Footbridge, Largs Bay Jetty, Grange Jetty, West Beach Boat Ramp, Patawalonga King St Bridge, Glenelg Jetty, Brighton Jetty, O’Sullivan Beach Boat Ramp, Port Noarlunga, Onkaparinga Rowing Club.

Elevated levels of Karenia were detected at only one onshore site across South Australia - Port Hughes Jetty on Yorke Peninsula (16,850 cells per litre).

All other onshore sites across Yorke Peninsula recorded zero or low levels of Karenia.

Moonta Jetty recorded 1,650 cells per litre, down from 5,650 cells per litre the previous week.

Low levels of up to 200 cells per litre were recorded at Wallaroo Jetty, Port Victoria Jetty, Port Rickaby and West Cape.

Karenia levels across the west coast of Yorke Peninsula are significantly lower compared with the start of March, when Point Turton Jetty recorded about 510,000 cells per litre.

Whilst it is often the case to complain about local council service, just a postive note in that on reporting a broken tread in the creek foot bridge, close to the jetty, three new pieces quickly put in to make it safe! Just took a quick call to 88320 000 and all fixed up.😀
