Lacepede Bay is one of four bays on the South Australian coast considered by the

Australian government to be a ‘historic bay’ under the Seas and Submerged Lands Act 1973 and was proclaimed as such in 1987 and again in 2006 and 2016 with the result that the mouth of the bay is on the territorial seas baseline and the waters within the bay are internal waters as per the definition used in United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.^[4]^[5]^[6]

protected areas are located within the bay's waters or adjoin its extent: the Upper South East Marine Park and the Butchers Gap Conservation Park
