Glenelg is Adelaide's most popular beach resort (especially
in the summer). There is plenty of accommodation to choose from including
apartments, hostels, hotels and motel accommodation, and a number of historic places of interest to visit.
 |
 |
Glenelg is easily accessed from the centre
of Adelaide, being only 20 minutes drive away. Along with
local buses, a vintage tram leaves from Victoria Square
and takes you right to Glenelg beach. |
|
In this busy town you can relax
on the beach, shop in the fashionable clothes
and surf stores, and eat at one of the restaurants
or cafes either in the town itself, or at the
Holdfast Shores Complex. Glenelg also offers loads
of activities.

|
 |
|
In the water you can hire wave skis, try windsurfing,
kayaking and sailing, and also go fishing.
On land you can hire a bike, or play golf,
tennis, beach volleyball or bowls.

One thing that you can't miss is the 'HMS
Buffalo', a replica of the first European settlers ship,
who landed in 1836, and proclaimes the state beside an
Old Gum Tree.
The boat is situated at the far end of Anzac
Highway, opposite the Buffalo Motor Inn, although the
old gum tree is a short drive/walk away, again just off
of Anzac Highway.
|
The main highstreet in Glenelg is Jetty
Road, where you'll find a large majority of the shops
and eating places, along with the side street delights.
|
At the end of Jetty Road (to the
south) is Moseley Square, which marks the end of
the tram line and the beginning of the beach.
Just around the corner is Moseley
Street where you'll find the main bus stop taking
you to a range of places around the region.
