Flying Fish Cafe

Top choice in Fleurieu Peninsula


Sit down for a cafe breakfast and you'll be here all day − the views of Horseshoe Bay are sublime. Otherwise grab some takeaway Coopers-battered flathead and chips and head for the sand. At night things get classy, with à la carte mains focusing on independent SA producers. One of SA's must-visit foodie haunts.
