Port Adelaide Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

A harbor with boats, a lighthouse, and buildings along the waterfront.
A street with graffiti, a brick building, and scaffolding.
A building with a sign reading "BAR DINING GAMING" and a bicycle parked outside.
A train station with a yellow train and a wooden carriage.
A red brick building with arched windows and a clock tower.
Look behind the busy commercial wharf that heads Port Adelaide and you’ll discover a town from another era.

Port Adelaide’s heritage harbourside is made up of perfectly preserved 19th-century buildings, which huddle together to fend off the tides of time. Bend an elbow at Port Adelaide’s colonial-era stone-built pubs or dine on tasty fare at an old-fashioned veranda-clad hotel. Pick up freshly caught fish and locally grown produce at Port Adelaide’s regular markets, check out the local live music scene or watch the Port Adelaide Football Club play a home match.
