Moana

This busy beachside town is known for its summer swimming, year-round fishing, snorkelling and coastal walks.  

Moana’s long, wide stretch of beach is popular with both surfers and families – offering a ‘drive on’ section for those wanting to pack up the car and park up to the water's edge for a full day of fun.  

Patrolled by surf lifesavers over the summer months, the beach is a safer spot for tiny tots to swim with their parents in the shallows.  

This westward facing beach is also a great place to catch the sunset – spectacular colours best enjoyed with some fish and chips or a drink in hand. Check out beachside venue Deep Blue Café or nearby Port Noarlunga for places such as Hortas or Noori wine bar.

Situated along the mid-coast surf reserve, where you can learn to surf with Surf & Sun, and on the doorstep of the world-renowned McLaren Vale wine region, Moana is the ideal base for exploring the many attractions of the Fleurieu Peninsula.
