Aldinga Beach is one of the few beaches in Australia where cars are permitted to drive on sections of the broad sand, making access to the beach especially easy. It is renowned for its safe swimming, expansive sandy areas and extremely family friendly which sees the population in the local area boom come summer. Come winter, we enjoy a slower pace of life and the beach is closed to cars. We see guests coming for the cosy, relaxed lifestyle and enjoying brisk beach walks with views of the rolling green hills and stormy seas. A little patch of seaside bliss less than an hour from Adelaide and mere minutes from McLaren Vale’s award-winning wineries. A popular year-round destination, Aldinga Beach embraces a friendly and welcoming community. Local cafes and eateries offer a taste of the region's culinary delights, allowing you to savor fresh seafood, great coffee and local produce while enjoying the coastal atmosphere. Trails at Aldinga Scrub Conservation Park take in dunes, rare orchids, echidna anteaters and birdlife, and nearby Thomas Street Reserve is a grassy seaside picnic spot. The relaxed dining scene consists of cafes, pubs, fish-and-chip shops and world class restaurant
