All about Semaphore

Just 30 minutes’ drive northwest of central Adelaide, Semaphore is a relaxed coastal suburb with a great beach and a picturesque foreshore. Named for the high flagpole erected on a colonial-era hotel as a signal to approaching ships, Semaphore is all about fun in the sun.

Beyond lounging on sandy beaches and plunging into turquoise waters, there’s an expansive foreshore to explore, where you’ll find a skate park, a basketball court, a kids’ playground, and a waterslide complex with mini golf and sideshow games. Running inland from the jetty, Semaphore Road is lined with historic pubs, restaurants, cafes, and boutiques. The area is also dotted with Art Deco architecture, crowned by an iconic beachfront bar and bistro. A pathway hugging the coast is great for jogging and cycling, with windy days attracting kitesurfers and windsurfers to the shallow waters of Semaphore Beach.
