THE BIG LOBSTER
Prince's Highway., Kingston SE., S.A. 5275

The BIG Lobster in Kingston SE.
Summary
The big lobster that was originally ordered to be made was much, much smaller and was designed to sit on top of the nearby building which was designed to resemble a lobster pot. (cray pot)
Somewhere along the line instructions got mixed up and the lobster was built in metres instead of feet!!!
The finished item is 17 metres tall and weighs approximately 4 tonnes.
Located just on the edge of the busy Princes Highway, it attracts many tourists and most can't resist the odd photo or two.
The icon is privately owned by the owner of the souvineer shop and restaurant located nearby known as "Big Lobster"
