Take a dip in family-friendly shallows of Semaphore Beach. Set against the backdrop of low dunes, this wide stretch of white sand makes for a classic Adelaide beach getaway. The green and busy foreshore offers all kinds of fun under the sun--from a mini-golf course and waterslide to a vintage Ferris wheel and a steam train. If you get hungry, grab some fish and chips from a beachside food stall. To visit Semaphore Beach and other attractions in Semaphore, use our Semaphore online journey planner.

  • Went for a walk along this beach and it is quite beautiful. There was some skydiving happening which was pretty cool and I did love the park reserve for the children to play and picnic if you did...

  • Recently visited this place at around 6pm on a week day. This place is very calm and quiet during the week it seems. Not too many people. The beach is a white sandy one. The sea around this place is not rough. The tides aren’t harmful. A lot of people come here to enjoy their evening by fishing at the jetty. The jetty extends a long way so you actually get the feeling of walking on the sea. The grass area outside the beach is good for a picnic or family gathering. People come here for photoshoots, picnics, and celebrations. There a lot of shops too. But not too many restaurants. You can find plenty of ice creams shops.
  • Lying on the white sand and swimming with the waves are my ways of enjoying and connecting with mother nature in this clean and beautiful place. Playgrounds are ideal for families with kids. It's only about 17km from the CBD. Parking is easy and clean as well. I can't remember the number of times I've been here because they're too many to remember.
  • Bewt beach plenty of things to do there. Nice shops and the jetty is great for the occasional fishing trip. Highly recommended to any who are looking for a nice place to visit and enjoy the day. Plenty of shops, long jetty, pet friendly and has all amenities to make it a comfortable trip to Semaphore. Hope you enjoy the day
  • heaven on earth! love the sand bank.. makes it so easy for my dog to run into the water and play! stunning beach and the water is warmer than most beaches!
  • A great beach to take the family. Dunes are nice, plenty of grassed area over a kilometre or so just behind the dunes. Near the jetty is always pretty vibrant on the weekends. The sand bar near here makes a nicer/safer swimming spot for the kids at higher tides, as well as the water seems to be warmer there too.
