Gulf St Vincent
Gulf St Vincent is a large inlet of water on the southern coast of Australia, in the state of South Australia. It is bordered by Yorke Peninsula on its west, the mainland and Fleurieu Peninsula to its east and with its entrance as being a line from Troubridge Point on Yorke Peninsula to Cape Jervis on Fleurieu Peninsula.
Adelaide, the South Australian capital, lies midway along the gulf's east coast. Other towns located on the gulf, from west to east include Edithburgh, Port Vincent, Ardrossan and Port Wakefield and Normanville. It was named "Gulph of St. Vincent" by Matthew Flinders on 30 March 1802, in honour of Admiral John Jervis (1st Earl of St Vincent). Prior to then, it had been known as Golphe Josephine.〔Eric Wolanski (editor), (Estuaries of Australia in 2050 and Beyond ), Dordrecht: Springer, 2014, p.155 (ISBN 9789400770188 & ISBN 9400770189)〕
The Adelaide Desalination Plant which is located on Gulf St Vincent's eastern shore in Lonsdale, South Australia, supplies the Adelaide metropolitan area with desalinated water from the gulf. It officially opened in 2013.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sawater.com.au/community-and-environment/our-water-and-sewerage-systems/water-sources/desalination/adelaide-desalination-plant-adp )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.acciona.com.au/business-divisions/water/projects/adelaide-desalination-plant-port-stanvac )〕
