With character-laden streets awash with street art, cobbled laneways, heritage architecture and beautifully preserved 19th century warehouses, this up and coming historic port town has really come into its own. Steeped in rich maritime history, now you’ll find trendy restaurants and cool watering holes popping up all over Port Adelaide to soak in the atmospheric wharve vibes. Only 25 minutes from Adelaide, tuck into tacos at La Popular Taqueria or gourmet hotdogs from
The Saucy Sailor before washing it all down with a few brews from
Pirate Life Brewing. Home to the
National Railway Museum and the
South Australian Maritime Museum, Port Adelaide is a mecca for history buffs too. Looking for adventure?
