Sensational Sailing from City's Sands

When some people think of Australia's sandy beaches, they immediately think of Queensland, our northern most state.

However, Adelaide's white sandy beaches, in South Australia , are just superb, and they're not that far from the CBD.

As you can see from the photo, it's an ideal day for the sailing club to get out on the water. These craft are for one person and offer young sailors the opportunity to enjoy flying through the water.

On a weekend, the beach is teeming with life.

There are people in the water swimming, sailing or kayaking. People are walking their dogs, or their families, and generally soaking up the seaside atmosphere.


Close to the jetty there's the local pub and the cafe has the smell of fish and chips wafting down to the shore enticing walkers to stop and take a break.

Sometimes there are even kite surfers out on the water adding colour to the mix of sail boats and speed boats. It's so relaxing to sit on one of the benches and munch on fish and chips while watching the little flotilla in the distance.

Just South Australia being sensational again!
