Wreck of SS Mildura
The Lighthouse Bay Beaches along the Mildura Wreck Road are ideal for fishing, swimming and sunbathing and at the end of the road, you will discover the Mildura Wreck.
From the beach you will see the wreck of the SS Mildura, a cattle ship that was carrying Kimberely cattle south. It was destroyed in a cyclone on 1907 when it clipped the reef. Fortunately no lives were lost.
Timbers and iron from the wreck were salvaged and used in renovations to 'Yardie Creek Homestead'. The hull sat on the reef until World War II when allied planes used it for bombing practice.
