Cuttlefish Bay is a locality in South Australia located on the north coast of Dudley Peninsula on Kangaroo Island overlooking Backstairs Passage about 106 kilometres (66 mi)* south of the Adelaide city centre and about 8 kilometres (5.0 mi)* east of Penneshaw.[1][3] Its boundaries were created in March 2002 while its name was derived from Cuttlefish Bay, a bay located on its coastline with Backstairs Passage.[1] Land use within the locality is agriculture with land adjoining the coastline which has additional statutory constraints to “conserve the natural features of the coast.”[7][1] Cuttlefish Bay is located within the federal division of Mayo, the state electoral district of Finniss and the local government area of the Kangaroo Island Council.[1][4][5]
