Sunset View of Granite Island From the Horse-Drawn Tramway Causeway, Victor Harbor, South Australia, Australia
Granite Island, also known by the Ramindjeri people as Nulcoowarra, is a small island next to Victor Harbor, South Australia. The tramway links the visitor information centre in downtown Victor Harbor with the nearby Granite Island, running for half of its route over a 630 metres (2, 070 ft) viaduct or pier, locally described as a causeway. It is one of the very few horse-drawn tram routes remaining in public transit service anywhere in the world, and provides service every day throughout the year

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Artie Photography showcases the breathtaking sunset view of Granite Island from the horse-drawn tramway causeway in Victor Harbor, South Australia. Known as Nulcoowarra to the Ramindjeri people, this small island is a popular tourist attraction and can be accessed via the historic tramway that connects downtown Victor Harbor with Granite Island. The tramway route spans over a magnificent 630-meter viaduct or pier, locally referred to as a causeway. This unique mode of transportation is one of the few remaining horse-drawn trams still in operation worldwide, providing daily service throughout the year. As you traverse this picturesque path, you are treated to stunning views of both natural and man-made wonders. The photo captures not only the historical significance of this engineering marvel but also highlights its harmonious integration with nature. The wooden structures stand proudly against an enchanting skyline adorned with vibrant clouds at dusk. The coastal landscapes surrounding Granite Island add to its allure, with pristine beaches and rocky cliffs creating a mesmerizing backdrop. As your gaze extends towards the horizon, you are greeted by the vast expanse of ocean stretching into infinity. The tranquil bay waters reflect hues of orange and pink from the setting sun while vegetation thrives along the pathway's edge. Artie Ng's photography beautifully encapsulates all these elements – history, nature, and serenity – making it an exquisite addition to any collection celebrating Australian landscapes and travel destinations.
