This is the main beach in Adelaide. Easily accessible by car (just drive to the end of Anzac Highway) or take a tram from the city. There's plenty of cafes, shopping precinct, playground and, of course, the beach. The sand is soft and almost white. It feels so delicate under your feet. The water here is calm. So don't expect strong surf.
