The town claims to be the 'Seafood Capital of Australia' Port Lincoln has a contrasting
coastal landscape, ranging from sheltered waters and beaches, to surf beaches and rugged
oceanic coastline. The Great South Australian Coastal Upwelling System brings cold,
nutrient-rich water into nearby waters of the Great Australian Bight and Spencer Gulf.
These upwellings support lucrative fisheries, including that of the
southern bluefin tuna and sardine. Port Lincoln now has a thriving aquaculture industry
that farms the following species: tuna, yellowtail kingfish, abalone, mussels, oysters,
and experimental farming in seahorses and spiny lobsters.
Before the advent of aquaculture, the main fishing was for Southern bluefin tuna.

The book Blue Fin by Colin Thiele was set in Port Lincoln, with the movie of the same name filmed
in nearby Streaky Bay. Some of the shark scenes of Jaws and ANZAC Cove scenes in Gallipoli were
also filmed near Port Lincoln. [Wikipedia]
