Learn More about Adelaide SA

With its historic buildings, parks and gardens, and airy downtown, Adelaide is a great place to live. With its surrounding vineyards and local producers, the city has gained a reputation for its gastronomy. It is home to the Australian National Wine Centre, which offers tours. Its museums (South Australian Museum, South Australian Art Gallery) and its numerous festivals have made it a cultural capital. Along the Gulf of Saint Vincent, the suburbs of the city like Glenelg or Henley Beach are on the beach. Adelaide is also a "green" city with one of the first solar buses in the world and self-service bicycles. Adelaide is surrounded by vineyards. The Barossa Valley is, along with the Hunter Valley, the most important wine region in Australia, both in terms of quality and quantity of production. Its location, only 50 km from Adelaide, has also contributed to its success. In a few decades, the valley has become a Mecca for wine tourism in Australia. Two other large vineyards at the gates of the city produce excellent wines. 130 km north of Adelaide, the Clare Valley offers visitors tastings of their best wines. And 42 km to the south is the McLaren Vale on the Fleurieu Peninsula with its 40 wineries. A must for driving to Kangaroo Island, it is also a pleasant stopover. It is a weekend destination appreciated by the inhabitants of Adelaide. Already for its gastronomy but also for its beautiful beaches, its green hills and its magnificent coast. Towards Port Eliott or Victor Harbour, two seaside villages, you can embark on a dolphin and sea lion observation cruise, or discover the birdlife of Lake Alexandrina. Little visited by international tourists, the Yorke Peninsula, 2 hours from Adelaide, is not without charm for nature lovers. It contains the Innes National Park with its typical Australian fauna with emus, kangaroos and many birds. Bordered by oceans, you can observe whales from June to August and the region is famous for its seafood.
