Robe in South Australia is a small town fishing port with a population of about 1,500 people. The town was named after Major Frederick Robe, which founded the area as a shipping port in 1845. During the gold rush era of 1857 thousands of Chinese immigrants landed at Robe on destination to Ballarat and Bendigo. Robe attracts many tourists seeking a seaside holiday. Long Beach is a popular beach for swimming, surfing and fishing. Long Beach is also one of Australia's few beaches left where you can still drive your vehicle along the beach due to its firm sand composition. The rugged rocky cliffs around Robe also provide ideal fishing and diving conditions. The best spots to fish include Rock fishing in Guichen Bay, wharf fishing at Lake Butler Boat Haven Channel or surf fishing between Long Gully and West Beach. A great attraction to Robe is the Obelisk shipping marker found at Cape Dombey. It was built in 1855 and stands 12m (40 ft) high and is 30m (100 feet) above sea level. The noticeable red and white bands help guide mariners when boating.
