Adelaide is the capital city of South Australia. It is located on Torrens River, between Mt Lofty Ranges (to the east) and Gulf St Vincent (to the west). By metro population (over 1,3 million), the city is ranked Australia's 5th largest - after Sydney (New South Wales) , Melbourne (Victoria) , Brisbane (Queensland) and Perth (Western Australia) .

Adelaide is named after Queen Adelaide of Saxe-Meiningen (1792-1849), consort of William lV (1765-1837, King of Hanover). City's layout was planned in 1836 as a square-mile grid of wide boulevards surrounded by gardens and nature parks. Once known as "City of Churches", Adelaide has become celebrated for its arts festival, alfresco lifestyle, manageable size and pace, enhanced by a climate in which hot summers and warm autumns are separated by mild winters and springs.

There is a free city-loop bus service running along North Terrace and going to the south through Victoria Square. Shopping can be found close to North Terrace, at Rundle Mall off King William Str. Have in mind that shops and most attractions close at 5 pm. Beyond North Terrace is Torrens River with boat tours and tree-lined promenades, ovelooked by Festival Centre, Convention Centre and Adelaide Oval across the river.

Port Adelaide

Port Adelaide is located on Port River (officially Port Adelaide River) which is part of an estuary north of downtown. Since 1837, Port River is used as a shipping channel that serves cargo and passenger ships. Harbour Terminal (serving passenger / ferry and cruise ships) is at Outer Harbour (on Gulf St Vincent).

Port Adelaide is approx 14 km (9 mi) northwest of downtown and is also a city suburb (Outer Harbor, industrial suburb). Port's first wharf (Maclaren Wharf) was built in 1840. It had length 102 m (336 ft) and low tide draft/water depth 4,6 m (15 ft). Initially, the port had capacity to handle vessels with max displacement 539 tons. By mid-19th-century, the increasing shipping trade resulted in building new wharves and expanding the harbour facilities.

Outer Harbor's construction started in early-20th-century in order to accommodate larger vessels and reduce the time for navigation up Port River to Inner Harbour. In 2002, Newport Quays (consortium) was contracted by state's Government for the AUD 1,5 billion port development project covering 51 hectares (130 acres) of land. Land sales began in 2005. This project included the building of 2000 residential homes, with construction works creating ~4000 local jobs. In 2008, the now budgeted AUD 2 billion project was nearing completion (2 of 3 phases completed). Phase 3 included building a boat/yacht marina (capacity 100 slots/berths) and a building over the water.

In 2016 was proposed a project for Inner Harbor's Dock One transformation into a premium 23-hectares (0,23 km2) waterfront complex with residential and commercial buildings. The project included 1250 homes to be built across 4 precincts - 750 by Starfish Developments (at precincts Dock One, and Port Approach) and 500 by Cedar Woods (in precincts North West and Fletcher's Slip). The project included also constructing an esplanade (waterfront promenade) around Inner Harbor, a dockside piazza and refurbishment of Marine and Harbors (old building) into apartments. The 7-year project (estimated to generate ~AUD 280 million in investments) was officially launched on February 10, 2019. Inner Harbor is approx 13 km / 8 mi from downtown's CBD (central business district).

Port's cruising season runs from late-October through early-April. Trends show that the Australian cruising market is growing at a rapid pace. It has some of the industry's highest penetration rates nationally. Currently, Australian cruise ports' strongest competition comes from Singapore and Hong Kong (China) .

(statistics) Between season 2004-2005 and season 2009-2010, there were an over 450% increase in cruise ship visits and over 685% increase in cruise passengers. During season 2011-2012, MS Athena (renamed CMV Astoria , back then owned by Classic International Cruises / 1985-2012 defunct) was the first-ever cruise ship with long-term homeporting in Adelaide (regularly-scheduled roundtrips).

(statistics) season 2015-2016 (Nov 2015 - May 2016) had scheduled 38 cruise ship calls. Of those, 23 to Adelaide, 10 to Kangaroo Island , 4 to Port Lincoln and 1 to Robe (Limestone Coast).

On February 4-5, 2012 (over the weekend) at the port docked 4 cruise liners with total ~10000 passengers and crew. At that time, the largest cruiser that ever visited Australia ( Cunard 's RMS Queen Mary 2 ) berthed in the morning (Feb 4) carrying 2620 pax plus 1200 crew. On the next day (Feb 5), at "Outer Harbour 2" docked Celebrity Century (2150 pax, now Marella Explorer 2 ), Crystal Serenity (1100 pax) and MS Athena (550 pax, now Astoria ). Due to all ship calls, business hours in Rundle Mall were extended and live band music entertainment was provided. Weekend's 4 ship visits injected AUD 1,35+ million into the state's economy, with AUD 360,000+ to the city and its surrounding regions. Rundle Mall was visited by 60,000+ people (35,000-45,000 on regular weekend days).

During season 2015-2016, inaugural calls at Port Adelaide were made by Explorer of the Seas ( RCI-Royal Caribbean ), Pacific Eden ( P&O Australia ), Superstar Virgo ( Genting Star Cruises ) and Queen Elizabeth (Cunard).

Princess Cruises ' 2015-2016 program for the first time ever included a roundtrip departure from Adelaide. The 9-night itinerary visited Melbourne, Burnie (Tasmania) , Kangaroo Island, Port Lincoln and Portland (Victoria) , with prices starting from AUD 1200 pp (quad cabin rates). The company's 2015-2016 program had scheduled 80+ departures out of Australian ports (Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide) and also from Auckland NZ .

On December 11, 2016, the port was visited by its ever-largest cruise ship - RCI's Ovation of the Seas . The vessel docked at Port Adelaide Passenger Terminal (at 7 am) bringing nearly 6000 passengers and crew. At 4 pm, it departed for Hobart Tasmania . Australia's cruise industry worth for 2016 was estimated at ~USD 5,95 billion.

Princess Cruises' 2018 program (based on Golden Princess ) offered roundtrips to New Zealand. The first departure was January 8, 2018 (ports of call Melbourne, Dunedin, Akaroa, Wellington, Gisborne, Tauranga, Auckland, Fiordland Park). During season 2017-2018 (October-March), the cruise port handled 65 ship calls (16 more than 2016-2017) and a total of 159,513 passengers. For season 2019-2020, the port had scheduled 86 ship calls (nearly 1/4 increase).

On February 12, 2018, P&O Australia started the company's longest homeporting season in Adelaide. The 8-night cruise (themed "A Taste Of Tasmania") was operated by Pacific Eden .

The voyage had twice the number of nights of the traditional 3-day Cruises to Nowhere and featured scenic passage through Wineglass Bay (Freycinet National Park) and Great Oyster Bay (Tasman Sea). The available for booking shore excursions were 56, including sampling oysters at Coffin Bay and exploring South Australia's first lighthouse at Cape Willoughby Conservation Park.

During season 2018, P&O had scheduled 5 turnarounds/roundtrips from Adelaide with ~7000 passengers, injecting USD 5 million into the local economy. The 1500-passenger Pacific Eden (now Vasco da Gama ) started its first voyage from Adelaide (3-night "Comedy" cruise to nowhere) on February 9. The last roundtrip was on Feb 24 ( Food and Wine-themed ).

In March 2019, the Dutch company Royal Boskalis Westminster NV won the contract for widening Outer Harbor's shipping channel. The EUR 40 million project was awarded by Flinders Ports (port owner/operator) and includes Boskalis to widen the channel from 130 to 170 m (427-558 ft) and also to extend port's swinging/turning basin to allow access to larger container ships (Post Panamax-sized boxships) and larger cruise liners . Works include removing over 1,5 million m3 of material (sand and clay) via one trailing suction hopper dredger (ship) and one backhoe dredger (barge-mounted excavator). The dredged material will be moved to a designated area approx 30 km (19 mi) offshore. The project's completion was scheduled for 2019-H2.

For 2020-2021 (October through May), Princess scheduled the company's ever-largest South Australian homeporting season, with five Adelaide-visiting liners and estimated ~USD 20 million revenue to state's economy - from port charges, ship supplies, passenger-crew spending ashore. Of the 5 Australia-based Princess ships, 2 were homeported in Adelaide ( Sea and Sapphire ).

Cruise ships dock at the Outer Harbor wharf. The upgraded Port Adelaide Passenger Terminal includes a new road/traffic system into the terminal precinct, a direct walkway from the terminal to the nearby Outer Harbor railway station.

From Outer Harbor to central Port Adelaide is 10 suburban train stations away, about 40 min's, or by taxi about 15 min's. Trains run every 30 minutes. The Port has some of the finest colonial buildings in Australia. Take a walk along the docks and through the old Port to experience the ambiance. Self-guided and guided tours are offered. Dolphin watching is possible in the Port River. All-day transit tickets are about $10 pp and can be used on trains and buses.

The Maritime Museum , Railway Museum and Aviation Museum are located on Lipson Street and open daily…check out the Spitfire, climb the old ketch and ride the steam train. If you’re here on a Sunday, the Fisherman’s Wharf Market ( 9am-5pm Sun) has antiques, bric-a-brac, and crappy collectibles.  

In general shuttles, if provided, drop you off and pick you up from the Rundle Mall , which is right in the heart of the City. The shuttle takes around 30 to 40 minutes to the Mall from the cruise terminal.

A taxi from the Port to the City will run about 30 Australian Dollar after morning rush hour. Taxis are metered, and nearly all accept credit cards (surcharge).

Public transportation (bus route 150) is also available to the city center

Sightseeing:

Named in honour of Adelaide of Saxe-Meiningen, queen consort to King William IV, the city was founded in 1836 as the planned capital for a freely-settled British province in Australia.

The city center features Rundle Mall as its main shopping focus, and North Terrace as its main cultural focus (Art Gallery, Museum, State Library, Universities). The Casino is also located on North Tce, over the top of the central railway station. The Adelaide Festival of Arts (March) has many venues, including the Festival Center, very close to the railway station. There is a new bridge to the rebuilt Adelaide Oval (cricket, Australian Rules (AFL) football) .

Adelaide , capital city of South Australia, is situated on the River Torrens between Gulf St Vincent to the west and the Mount Lofty Ranges to the east. The city is named after Queen Adelaide, consort of William IV. The city layout was planned by Surveyor-General, Colonel William Light, in 1836 as a square-mile grid of wide boulevards surrounded by parks and gardens. Once known, somewhat condescendingly, as "the City of Churches", Adelaide in the past 30 years has become celebrated for its arts festival, its alfresco lifestyle, and its manageable size and pace, all enhanced by a climate in which hot summers and warm autumns are separated by mild springs and winters.

The city itself is studded with elegant colonial buildings and preserved facades. Along the north side of North Terrace you will find some interesting and some fine architecture - Old Parliament House (now the Constitutional Museum), the Parliament House, the Adelaide Railway Station, Government House, the South Australian Museum, the Art Gallery of South Australia, the Mortlock Library, and Adelaide University's Elder and Bonython Halls. Elsewhere in the city, the Festival Center on the Torrens, the Bicentennial Conservatory at the Botanical Gardens , St Peter's Cathedral in North Adelaide, Ayers House at the eastern end of North Terrace and the koalas at Cleland Wildlife Park (in the suburban hills) are all worth a visit.

Tours Excursions Transportation:

Adelaide's city center is easy to explore on foot. Most of Adelaide’s big-ticket sights are within walking distance of the city center, with many along North Tce. The core Rundle Mall shopping district is entirely pedestrianised.

You can circle around the main Adelaide sights on the free city buses. Look for 99C bus.  It has clockwise and anticlockwise routes each with about 30 stops taking in all the major cultural and commercial centres in the City, beginning at Victoria Square and including Adelaide Railway Station. The buses feature ground-level access ramps.

It pays to compare your cruise line tours here .

Nearby Places:

--> Glenelg , or ‘the Bay’ Located only 10km from the heart of Adelaide City, Glenelg is a charming seaside resort set on the long sandy white shores of Holdfast Bay. Glenelg is the site of South Australia's original mainland settlement in 1836. A short 25 minute trip by tram departing from the center of Glenelg - Moseley Square, takes you into Adelaide City and most importantly - Rundle Mall.

Cleland Wildlife Park Cleland Wildlife Park is only 20 minutes from the Adelaide city center Nestled within the natural bush setting of Cleland Conservation Park, and adjacent to Mount Lofty Summit, the park provides 35 hectares of open bushland habitat where visitors can interact with Australian wildlife such as kangaroos, koalas, and emus.

Shopping and Food

A few paces west of Victoria Square, on the south side of Grote Street, is the Central Market , which since the second half of the 19th C. has supplied the city with fresh fruit, vegetables and culinary delicacies. This colorful market was founded in 1870.

Rundle Mall: The city's main shopping area features local and national department stores, boutiques, specialty shops, cafes, and pubs. Watch for street entertainers, including mimes and musicians, and enjoy the people-watching on this pedestrian mall.

Adelaide is the fifth largest city in Australia and the capital city of South Australia. The city thrives in agriculture and mining, but this is not to say that it isn’t as cosmopolitan as Australia’s other cities. It is no longer the sleepy city that it was once known to be. In truth, Adelaide has the largest number of restaurants per capita, and it does not have a shortage of sprawling shopping malls and shopping arcades with the most beautiful architecture.

The cruise industry in Adelaide experienced a growth in the recent decade, resulting in a boom for the local economy. Shopping malls expanded and extended their operating hours. Fine dining and casual restaurants cropped up everywhere, farmer’s markets thrived and the wine industry became one of the beloved local tourism magnets. The coastal city is a popular cruise destination. In fact, the cruise port hosted 65 ship calls just this last season of 2017-2018, and the 2019-2020 season is scheduled to handle 85 ship calls.

Adelaide city CBD at sunrise

Living in the only city that was not built as a colony for convicts, residents of Adelaide are quite proud that their land was founded through legal sales. Adelaide also hosts some of the world’s finest and most diverse festivals such as the Adelaide Fringe , Adelaide Festival and the WOMAdelaide . The festivals are a showcase of arts, culture, diversity, nature and origin.

Adelaide experiences four seasons with weather that is similar to that of the Mediterranean. They have warm and sunny summers with low humidity from December to February. Temperature can rise up to 40 degrees Celsius with sparse rainfall. However, normal temperature ranges from 16.7 degrees to 28.6 degrees Celsius. Autumn covers March to May where the city and towns are transformed to hues of gold, red, orange and yellow. Temperature is lower at 12.7 degrees to 22.7 degrees Celsius.

Snow during winter is rare, but rainfall occurs more often during the months of June to August. The temperature drops down to 16 degrees Celsius and can drop even further to 8 degrees Celsius. It gets even colder in the Adelaide Hills where they occasionally get frost and slight dustings of snow. Spring occurs from September to November where temperature rises up to 11.8 degrees Celsius or up to 22 degrees Celsius. Rainfall once again becomes sparse, but the nights are ruled by crisp and cold air.

Cruise Ship Schedule

Cruise ships dock at Port Adelaide Outer Harbour. It is very accessible, being only 12 miles or 19 kilometres from the city. Cruising season is from October through March, which falls on summer. Pack and dress accordingly and take temperature and sunshine into account.

Here are cruises scheduled to arrive at and depart from Adelaide from October 2019 to March 2025. Schedules are subject to change, but you may click on a live view of the ship location and bridge cam.

Here is another list of cruises set to arrive at and depart from Adelaide for the rest of the year.

There are several types of cruises that arrive at or depart from Adelaide:

World Cruise

Luxury liners offer world voyages that arrive at and depart from the port of Adelaide. A full-length trip can have an itinerary that lasts for more than a hundred days or up to four months. Australia is a mid-itinerary destination for a cruise that departs from Southampton, United Kingdom.

Smaller and shorter world cruises can take up to 40 days or more on a westbound trip to Asia or the US through Hawaii. Eastbound trips head to South Africa or the Mediterranean coast.

World cruises are offered by Cunard, Cruise Maritime, Princess and P&O.

Circle Australia

Cruises that will take tourists on a trip to circumnavigate the continent of Australia are quite rare but worth it. Tourists will have a choice between an Australia to Asia or an Australia to New Zealand cruise.

Mini Cruise

If one is pressed for time and can only afford to get on a short-break cruise, consider 4-day cruises that that arrive at Port Lincoln, Adelaide, or head to Melbourne.

Cruise to Nowhere

Cruises that focus on the experience rather than the journey and destination are also offered in Adelaide. These cruises are usually themed but do not embark on any ports of call. These are popular for events such as parties, company-sponsored events, meetings, concerts, and food and wine tastings. Some popular themes are arts and music, culinary and gastronomy, comedy, dating, and sports and wellness.

Repositioning Cruises

These types of cruises have a different embarkation and disembarkation port. This is more popular for people who are migrating, going home, or adventurers who are looking to stay in one country for a longer period of time. Long-distance repositioning cruises usually come from Asia and end in Australian ports. Some short-distance cruises, which can last for a week, will make stops at coastal cities such as Adelaide, Brisbane, Fremantle, Melbourne or Sydney. Some lucky travellers may even find themselves on a repositioning cruise that visits Kangaroo Island and Esperance.

Adelaide Central Market

Food and Drink

If you ever crave a snack after all that shopping, head over to Norwood Parade and Magill Road. Only ten minutes from the city via car ride, you can shop ’til you drop at over 250 retail stores, specialty shops, boutiques and antique stores. Then proceed to wine and dine at some of the most popular restaurants, diners and quaint cafes.

The Adelaide Central Market is also a favourite for a relaxed food shopping experience. Get the freshest produce and some of the most coveted selections of cheese, honey, flavoured oils and gin all in one morning walk.

Hole-in-the-wall, side-street, and laneway bars and restaurants dominate the dining culture of Adelaide. In this city, you will always find a good place to eat or have a few drinks. Go ahead and explore—you can even ask some of the locals for the best places in town.

The Barossa Valley is home to the best wines and some of the greatest vineyards. Plan a trip whether via tour or an arranged visit to any of the wineries and vineyards located at the hills. Wine tastings are a must and dining with a good bottle of Shiraz or Pinot Noir is tradition.
