On the way to…
Opened at Elliston in June 2014, a hundred years after the disaster it exists for. On 30 March 1914 sealers from the SS Newfoundland were left on the ice in a blizzard, and the SS Southern Cross went down the same day returning from the front; more than 250 men were lost between them. Elliston lost a greater share of its men than any other community, so the centre is here.
Stopping here adds about 0 km to that drive (305 km start to finish).
