Behind the dunes is the Onkaparinga River. The river mouth comes out where the dunes end and the cliffs start at Southport beach. In the distance and to the right is the southern tip of the Mt. Lofty Ranges and the cliffs of Sellicks Beach where I live. Thank you all for sharing your wonderful pictures. Have a great Xmas and a Happy (snappy!!) New year!
