Cape Jervis is a sleepy town with loads of potential. Awesome views across backstairs passage to Kangaroo Island, only 1.5 hrs from Adelaide, and less than an hour from Noarlunga. Average prices in the town are still low, but you get the impression the place is about to boom. This would have to be one of the last seafront hamlets that hasn't ! 5 or 6 fishing charter groups work out of cape jervis, the heysen trail starts there, deep creek conservation park, Morgans beach sandhills, talisker mine conservation park, a free boat ramp, some excellent beaches, wind farm, farms, diving and fishing. A really great community as well with a community hall, playground and footy oval, pub, restaurant and general store, as well as a load of good accommodation alternatives. Then there is the .... shockingly awful internet access, with wireless expensive slow 3g broadband and slow satellite the only options, no mains water in the town, no mains sewerage, a below average council that focuses on Yankalilla, Normanville and Carakalinga as it's jewels and forgets the rest .. get in while you can !
