Stokes Bay (South Australia)
Stokes Bay is a bay in South Australia on the northern coast of Kangaroo Island located about  west of the town of Kingscote. It is described as being the largest of a number of coves located along the coast between Cape Dutton about  to the west and Cape Cassini about  to the east. The source of the bay's name is reported as taking its names from "supposedly takes its name from the first mate of the Hartley which arrived in South Australia in October 1837" and is not to be confused with a Henry Stokes (c.1808-1898), a sealer who lived on Kangaroo Island prior to 1836 or a John Stokes who arrived on the island in 1817 and who is reported as residing at Stokes Bay.
