5 Reasons to Choose Glenelg Beach for Your Adelaide Holiday

A trip to the South Australian capital offers plenty to see and do, plus lovely places to stay. Durham Serviced Apartments offers premier beach accommodation in Glenelg. Let’s explore the top five reasons to pick Glenelg Beach for your Adelaide holiday.

Beautiful Esplanade

Six kilometres of picturesque esplanade stretch from Glenelg to Seacliff, perfect for walking, jogging and cycling; and you can explore all of this just a short distance from our Glenelg beach apartments!

Australian Wildlife

If you want to stay close to the Adelaide CBD while being surrounded by natural beauty and wildlife, Glenelg gives you the best of both worlds. Native birds frequent the green spaces of Colley Reserve and Wigley Reserve, and you can keep your eyes peeled to the shallow shores where dolphins and seals frequently play.

Family Fun

Another perk of holiday accommodation in Glenelg Beach is the proximity to old school fun for the entire family to enjoy. The Beachhouse is a retro amusement centre with bumper cars, putt-putt golf, arcade games, waterslides and more. There’s also the Skyline Ferris Wheel, operating from late October to May with fantastic views of the entire beach and city.

Calm Waters

Glenelg is renowned for its picturesque, peaceful waters, perfectly suited to anyone wanting to try surfing, kayaking or boogie boarding. The glassy water is also popular for stand-up paddleboards, with rentals available at Brighton Beach right next door.

Tram Transport

Glenelg is a beloved spot for visitors who want to be near the water while still having easy access to everything going on in the city. From our Adelaide beach accommodation in Glenelg, you can take a quick stroll to the Bay Tram stop and be in the CBD within 30 minutes.
