✨ 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 since 1935?
Originally built right on the banks of the River Torrens, it has become one of our most loved and nostalgic experiences.
Today, you can enjoy a relaxing cruise from Elder Park along the river — even travelling up to the Adelaide Zoo — taking in the beauty of the city from a completely different perspective.
✨ And it’s not just tradition…
Popeye has evolved too, with different tour options and even artistic touches and creative experiences onboard, blending history with something a little more modern.
With Gather Round 2026 and school holidays here, it’s the perfect time to explore #Adelaide.
