On the north-west coast of Flinders Island in Bass Strait, about 30 kilometres from Whitemark, this small declared fossicking area centres on the granite foreshore around Diamond Gully. The prize is topaz, the clear, pale-blue and colourless 'Killiecrankie diamonds' washed from the local pegmatites, turned up among the boulders along with smoky quartz and the rarer beryl and zircon. Reached by unsealed road after the flight or ferry crossing, it's fossicked by searching and sieving the beach gravels rather than by deep digging.
