 The biennial Port Festival gives us all the opportunity to celebrate and enjoy some of the best of the west. This festival captures the unique and eclectic spirit of the Port, and activates local iconic spaces. The Festival brings many visitors to Port Adelaide, and is a stimulus for a huge range of artistic endeavour and good old fashioned entertainment. 

 Adelaide offers various of Local Golf Courses. Because of its delightful bush country setting, this spacious golf course can give a feeling of truly 'being away from it all'. Just to walk the course is a delight with a chance to see much of the local bird and animal life.

 With spectacular coastal views and world class instructors, you can experience the rush of freefall at over 240 kilometres per hour, before calmly descending down to earth under parachute. Overlook the magnificent Gulf of St Vincent. After taking off from our purpose built Drop Zone, you can see the beautiful Gulf, and as you get higher, check out the sights to the other side of the Gulf to Ardrossan and back to Adelaide City. 

 You can enjoy the ultimate rush through the open ocean, enjoy the tranquillity of the Port River while taking in the scenes of the historic shipwrecks or create a custom tour tailored to suit your wishes. The best thing is that - you don't need a boat licence to ride! No experience is necessary. Every rider is given an induction and all safety equipment and life jackets are provided. 

 The SA Maritime Museum’s collection began in 1872 to preserve, explore and celebrate the human history of our oceans and rivers. It has become one of Australia’s great nautical collections; it is certainly the oldest. We invite you to explore.
