Paris Creek

54 kilometres from Adelaide

On the northern edge of the Fleurieu Peninsula, six kilometres from Meadows, Paris Creek is now more associated with biodynamic dairy products than the original Paris family who settled the town in the 1860s. In the past, the town was renowned for its marble, which has been used in local public buildings, as well as the National War Memorial in Canberra. A collectors outlet has possibly the largest selection of thimbles and collectables in Australia, while from September to late November, dazzlingly colourful sweet peas in flower can be seen in the gardens of Paris Creek Pottery.
