The capital of South Australia, Adelaide nestles between the sea and the Adelaide Hills. It is a graceful city of wide streets, elegant buildings and many parklands. Cultural pursuits and good food and wine are high on the agenda and its mild Mediterranean climate encourages outdoor activities. Take the 10 kilometre historic tram ride from Adelaide city centre to Mosely Square at beautiful Glenelg for fun in the sun. This premier beach has a long jetty from which to enjoy fishing and sunsets, shops, restaurants and a grand hotel which overlooks the beach. The waters along South Australia are one of the world's major breeding grounds for the southern right whale. Stand on a limestone cliff to watch them play spectacularly close to shore. What better way to enjoy the magnificent Murray River than by houseboat. Fabulously comfortable and reasonably priced they offer independence, adventure and you can catch dinner over the side.
