There’s something magical about Adelaide at night …

✨ Easter in Adelaide, South Australia… and the River Torrens is simply glowing ✨ There’s something truly special about Adelaide’s River Torrens in South Australia at this time of year — soft light, calm waters, and those beautiful reflections along the river that make you stop and take it all in. Right in the heart of Adelaide’s city centre, you’ll find the iconic Popeye and Paddle Boats on the Torrens River Adelaide 🚤 Did you know “Popeye” has been part of Adelaide’s story

We spent the day in Goolwa on the Fleurieu Peninsula and honestly — it was just beautiful. Sunshine, fresh air, pelicans gliding overhead and that relaxed coastal feeling you wish you could bottle up. We stopped in for lunch at Imbiss on the Elbow   on the Goolwa Wharf — such a great find. Sitting there watching the boats come and go while enjoying authentic German food (and a stein of beer ) felt pretty special. The food, the view, the atmosphere… all just worked. At the Imb

Adelaide welcomed some beautiful, much-needed rain today — the gentle kind that freshens the air and makes everything feel alive again. Our South Australian coastlines are known for their fabulous sunsets… and this night was no different. A soft drizzle, umbrellas along the jetty at Henley Beach, and the sky glowing in golden tones as the evening settled in. If you Visit Henley Beach , Thai Orchid  Restaurant is a fabulous place to choose for dining — consistently great food,

🏛 HISTORY FRIDAY | Murray Street, Gawler Standing proudly on Murray Street, this grand building began life in 1873 as the Bank of Adelaide branch — one of the most impressive and expensive buildings in Gawler at the time. Solid stone construction. Spacious rooms. High ceilings. Detailed ironwork. It was described in the 1880s as “one of the chief ornaments of Murray Street.” And when you step inside (thank you to Gawler History Trust for preserving those early images), you c

Did you know that one of Adelaide’s most charming attractions has been cruising the River Torrens for almost 90 years? The beloved Popeye first set sail in 1935, built by Captain Gordon Watt right on the banks of the Torrens. Named after the famous cartoon character of the time, this 25-foot wooden boat began ferrying passengers between Elder Park and the Adelaide Zoo — and a South Australian icon was born. As crowds grew, so did the fleet. Between 1948 and 1951, four more wo

Last Sunday, (2/11/2025) Adelaide’s beloved Regal Theatre marked an incredible 100 years, and what a fabulous celebration it was! A full house gathered, including special guests such as Andrea Michaels MP, Minister for Arts in South Australia (among other portfolios) — a fitting representative for a day celebrating community, creativity, and connection. The Regal first opened on Sunday, 2 November 1925, and has stood proudly at the heart of Burnside ever since. In 1928, it wa

It’s always such a joy to welcome visitors from around the world and help them feel truly at home here in South Australia.

Recently, we had the chance to stop by Kapunda and see this magnificent work of art coming to life — a true celebration of South Australia’s history and community spirit. Even before it was finished, the detail was breathtaking! The mural, created by talented artist Smug (Sam Bates), beautifully weaves together stories of Kapunda’s farming and mining heritage — honouring the hardworking people who helped shape the region. It’s a stunning tribute that now stands tall as a land
