The Memory Cove is a bay located on the east coast of Jussieu Peninsula on Eyre Peninsula in South Australia approximately 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) south-east of Port Lincoln. It is one of the natural features named by Matthew Flinders in memory of the eight crew who were lost from a cutter that capsized sometime after being launched from the HM Sloop Investigator to search for water on 21 February 1802.[2][3] Since 2004, the coastline enclosing the bay has been part of the Memory Cove Wilderness Protection Area.[3]
