A man with an international licence has been caught drink driving at more than six times the legal limit.

The 33-year-old was driving a Nissan sedan when he was pulled over by police at Naracoote on South Australia's Limestone Coast.

In a breath test recorded just after 11am on Friday, he allegedly produced a blood alcohol reading of 0.315.

The man was reported for drink driving and issued with an instant loss of licence for 12 months.

He will be summonsed to appear in the local magistrates court at a later date.

Naracoote, located about 100km north of Mount Gambier, is famous for its caves and World Heritage-listed fossils.
