The Colombine was a British wooden snow of 280 tons, built in 1824, and commanded by Captain Tuit.
She was wrecked her on 31 March 1829 while on a voyage from London to New South Wales with a cargo of British manufactured goods. No lives were lost. A small amount of cargo was saved at the time of her wrecking, but most was salvaged in 1974. Kraletjiesbaai is named after the beads (krale) which washed ashore from this wreck.
