Your free monthly community magazine covering the Fleurieu Peninsula.

April 2020

During these challenging times we will continue to publish Coast Lines – but only online from May until we are able to print again when restrictions subside. The April edition has been distributed early to limited places across the Fleurieu Peninsula to apply with government restrictions.

Coast Lines will continue to be published online on the first day of each month, and free email subscription is available. We have always been incredibly grateful to our advertisers, distributors and readers, and we are determined to keep Coast Lines going to hopefully offer some respite from the relentless waves of bad news. Please get the word out there that Coast Lines may be read online. We are all in this together, so please buy local.

You can access the April edition here. Thank you again, and please take care.
