This January, the City of Onkaparinga will

PLACES TO VISIT

Pristine beaches, rural charm and
intrinsic beauty, the seaside area of Aldinga
has long been a favourite holiday escape.
Encounter Marine Park – Aldinga Reef
One of the most visited reefs in South Australia, divers and
snorkellers experience rare gorgonian corals, sponges and
reef fish. Established in 1971, explore on foot or underwater
the 505 hectares of the protected marine environment.

Wild cliff scenery and a long, pristine stretch of sand are the
hallmarks of Aldinga Beach. This fabulous expanse of coast
boasts cafes, restaurants and a cycling and walking trail
stretching from Sellicks Beach to Maslin Beach.
PORT WILLUNGA
Home to a famous shipwreck, popular seaside restaurants
and a sparkling strip of beach. A hidden gem.
Star of Greece Café

offers exquisite meals and a commanding view over the bay.
Port Willunga Jetty remains
A collection of weather-beaten pylons that stand as a reminder
to the town’s past as a grain port, set against a magnificent cliff
backdrop it makes for a great sunset photograph. The jetty was
partially destroyed in a storm in 1915.
Star of Greece
Caught in a fierce storm on 13 July 1883, the ship ran aground
and broke up. It became one of South Australia’s worst marine
disasters. Today, it is a popular spot with snorkellers and divers,
but you don’t have to get wet to see the wreck. At low tide it
can often be seen jutting out of the water, just north of the jetty.
