Boy and Bloom have emerged down south to open their second coffee shop. The locals have jumped on board to support this great shop…and it is already packed at breakfast time with all the goodness of a fabulous menu. Only a hop skip and a jump to the Seaford esplanade! There is an outdoor area where you can sit with your pooch, and light and bright in the inside. Boy and Bloom South has brightened up Cliff Ave as a go to destination this Summer.

To Eat
Nestled amongst the sand hills of Goolwa Beach. Kuti Shack is the result of Goolwa PipiCo and Kuti
Co partners sitting down with a couple of mates, who just happen to be really good at cooking and
deciding to go into business together.
The Chefs — Having worked at and headed up some of South Australia’s finest restaurants, Brendan and Vanessa do incredible things with Fleurieu produce. Kuti Shack features local fish and many of the Fleurieu’s finest ingredients, including the mighty Kuti (Pipi) of course.
The Food — Kuti Shack is all about creating exciting new and innovative Pipi dishes with local indigenous ingredients. But for those who are still to jump on the #pipirevolution there is a host of other seafood, produce, wine and craft beer from the Fleurieu, cooked by local creative chefs. Whenever possible our seafood and produce is sourced from local and sustainable producers.

To Help
AusOcean is developing South Australia’s first live streaming underwater camera to broadcast the magnificent marine life beneath Rapid Bay directly to your screens. Whether you’re a diver wanting site visibility information, a citizen scientist eager to learn more about temperate marine species or maybe you’re an ocean lover who appreciates the beauty and wonder of the underwater world. RapidCam will be available for everyone to utilise and explore. They design, build and deploy open source ocean technology, including networked sea surface platforms, known as “rigs”, as well as custom sensors (e.g. underwater cameras, hydrophones, environmental sensors, etc.). Data is transmitted straight to the “cloud”, where it is stored, analyzed and shared. Their goal is to transform the way in which ocean data is collected and communicated.
