About Adelaide

Why is Adelaide a good sailing destination?

At Yachting.Rent, we’re passionate about sharing our love for Adelaide, South Australia, as a premier sailing destination. There are countless reasons why Adelaide is perfect for your next yacht charter, and here are just a few.

Situated on the Gulf of St. Vincent, Adelaide boasts a glorious Mediterranean-style climate, offering excellent sailing conditions for most of the year. The breezes are steady, and the waters of the Gulf are calm, providing an exceptional environment for both beginners and seasoned sailors.

The coastal waters around Adelaide are home to a rich diversity of marine life. During your yacht charter, you may have the chance to spot dolphins frolicking in the surf or seals basking on the rocks. The region is also a birdwatcher’s paradise with numerous species gracing the skies and shores.

Adelaide’s coastline is studded with beautiful beaches, hidden coves, and charming seaside towns, waiting to be explored. Each offers its own unique experience, from the bustling restaurant scene of Glenelg to the tranquil beaches of Kangaroo Island. Anchoring in different locations allows you to experience South Australia’s stunning landscapes and vibrant culture at your own pace.

For those seeking more adventurous pursuits, Adelaide’s waters are perfect for a range of water sports, from snorkelling and scuba diving to surfing and fishing. The region’s clear waters provide excellent visibility for exploring underwater ecosystems and shipwrecks.

What makes Adelaide truly special is its proximity to world-class vineyards. A short trip inland from the marina takes you to the celebrated wine regions of the Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale, where you can sample some of Australia’s best wines.

Embark on your sailing adventure with Yachting.Rent in Adelaide, South Australia, and explore the wealth of experiences this remarkable destination has to offer.

What Choose

Sailing boat or Catamaran, what to sail in Adelaide

Embarking on a sailing adventure in Adelaide, South Australia with Yachting.Rent gives you the power to choose between the exhilarating speed of a sailing boat or the luxurious comfort of a catamaran. Both options offer unique advantages, making your journey on the waters of the Gulf St. Vincent an unforgettable experience.

Sailing boats are the traditional choice for those seeking to experience the thrill of harnessing the wind. Agile and responsive, sailing boats offer a hands-on experience and the opportunity to learn the craft of sailing. With a lean hull, they are built for speed, slicing through the waves, and can take you to your destination quickly. They are perfect for day trips, weekend getaways, or challenging sailing adventures across longer distances.

On the other hand, catamarans provide an entirely different sailing experience. With their two hulls, catamarans offer greater stability, making them an ideal choice for those seeking a relaxed and comfortable voyage. They are excellent for families or groups as they provide more space and comfort, with expansive decks and cabins for everyone to stretch out and relax. Their shallow draft also allows you to anchor closer to the shore, perfect for exploring Adelaide’s coastline and secluded coves.

Adelaide’s consistent winds and calm waters make it an excellent destination for both types of vessels. The sailing boat can take advantage of the steady breezes for a swift and exciting sail, while the catamaran can offer a stable and comfortable cruise to enjoy the picturesque coastline.

Whether you’re a seasoned sailor eager to feel the wind in your sails, or a relaxed cruiser looking to soak up the sun on a spacious deck, Yachting.Rent can provide the perfect vessel for your adventure. So, sailboat or catamaran? The choice is yours. Set sail in Adelaide, South Australia, and make lasting memories on the azure waters.

A Mysterious $110 Million Super Yacht Has Docked in Adelaide

Adelaide, a mysterious super yacht is in you.

The $US75 million (around $AU110 million) luxury super yacht, called the Satori, docked at Port Adelaide on Friday after taking a trip to Melbourne and Auckland.

The mystery surrounding the super yacht is that we don’t really know who the owner is. It’s believed to be owned by U.S. billionaire Jay Alix, who is a philanthropist and founder of the management consulting firm AlixPartners .

According to SuperYachtFan , the Satori, designed and built by Delta Marine Design Group , is 63 metres long and can house 12 guests in six cabins. It also costs around $AU6 million to $AU12 million to run.

But what is the super yacht doing in Adelaide? We don’t really know and we probably won’t. Apparently, the details of super yachts and their owners are kept relatively quiet. As such, we don’t actually know if Alix is on board the yacht at all.

According to the Flinders Port public shipping schedule , the Satori is set to leave Port Adelaide on December 8 after arriving on November 18. The super yacht also has a Cayman Islands flag and has an unknown vessel operator and naval headquarters. Take from that what you will.

Could this be the most exciting thing to happen in Port Adelaide? Maybe.

The potential owner of the super yacht, Jay Alix, has quite a lengthy CV. Not only is he the founder of AlixPartners, he has also served as CEO, COO and CFO of the firm.

He has extensive pro bono work, according to his bio on the AlixPartners website, which includes being a strategic advisor to various Japanese government agencies and officials when Japan developed its strategy for corporate revitalisation. He also assisted the Bank of Japan and the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.

AlixPartners have also led major corporate restructurings including General Motors, WorldCom, Enron, Dana Corporation, Calpine and Kmart Corporation.

Jay Alix was also appointed by President Clinton to the National Bankruptcy Review Commission and made proposals to revise the bankruptcy laws, being the only businessperson and non-lawyer on the commission.

If you thought that was already a lot, including owning a super yacht, Alix has also done a lot of work in the creative and medical space. In 2018, Alix donated $US200 million to the Mayo Clinic School of Medicine which is the largest-ever endowment gift to Mayo Clinic. The school is now known as Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine.

Alix has also, for some reason, been involved in the production of award-winning documentary films, four-time Tony-winning Broadway musicals and plays and Grammy-nominated music. He has also helped the Detroit Public School System and the Normal Rockwell Museum.

It’s been a busy time for super and mega yachts lately. From America seizing a whole bunch of Russian super yachts, which it probably shouldn’t have done , to a super yacht that sank a gas tanker going on sale for $50.5 million .

Oh, and there’s recently been plans to build a giant turtle-shaped terayacht floating city thing .

We may never know the real story behind the mysterious super yacht that’s gracing Adelaide with its presence, but we know we love a big boat story.

Emily Merrett

SUNSET CATAMARAN CRUISE! Oh. My. Goodness. This was my absolute favourite thing about my first trip to Adelaide! My partner and I LOVED the views of the sunset, the crew was amazing, providing a bar and music for all to enjoy. Blankets were provided as it got a little chilly. Could not recommend enough 🙂 Thank you, thank you!

Charmaine Russell

This experience was the best ! A perfect start or end to your day. We chose the sunset cruise and what a magnificent time we had, the afternoon was fuss free easy going, the bar was well stocked and the staff were great, there was also plenty of room to shelter from the sun if needed. But take a hat slap on some sunscreen and enjoy the view. Thinking about it ……DO IT !

Kate Harris

Incredible natural experience with Temptation, loved the knowledge they shared about the dolphins. The crew went out of their way to give us the best interaction with the dolphins and answered any questions we had about them and their environment! Seeing the dolphins was amazing, they swam right underneath us!

Kirsty Porteous

Best experience!!! Swimming with the dolphins was absolutely breathtaking 😃 The whole family loved it. Helped that we had sensational weather and the dolphins were out to play. Amazing crew on board too. Thoroughly recommend 🤩

We had a fantastic trip this morning! We saw dolphins and calves and were able to swim up close. Fantastic experience and such a privilege to see such phenomenal creatures in their natural habitat. Our guides were very knowledgeable and friendly and able to answer our questions. Best activity to do in Adelaide hands down! (I’ve done the swimming with dolphins on kangaroo island which was lovely, however would recommend doing this one as when your in the cargo net it allows you to focus on the dolphins) – if you haven’t been – Go!

A must do in Adelaide! The crew is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and focussed on the passenger and the protection of the dolphins in the wild. We swam with 2 species of dolphins from the front and back of the beautiful boat. It was a genuine observation of nature. Will definitely do this again when back in Adelaide.

where to find us

Temptation Sailing resides at the Marina Pier , in Holdfast Shores at Glenelg, South Australia (Find us in the Marina, not at the beach!).

We are just a 15 minute drive from Adelaide’s CBD, 5 minutes from the Adelaide Airport and are accessible by car, bus or tram.

About Adelaide Sailing

Check our ‘SPECIALS’ for the special of the month.

Adelaide Sailing have been sailing and teaching to sail to both locals and visitors for more than 10 years. We are based out of Glenelg ,which is only a 20 minute drive from the CBD. We sail out from the Marina Pier at Holdfast Bay , which is a great place to spend sightseeing and dine out. The marina has many restaurants and some shopping as well. It is also only a 10 minute walk from Glenelg, which is where the tram ends its journey from the CBD. Glenelg is a charming seaside resort set on the long sandy white shores of Holdfast Bay. What better way to spend a day in SA than in Glenelg and sailing along the shores.

How to get to the boat:

The boat is based out the Marina Pier at Glenelg.

You can get to us by driving: You can park in the parking garage under the Marina Pier. Drive to the very end of Anzac highway (go through all of the roundabouts until you dead end at the beach). Once you park, walk up to the boats along the row of restaurants.

• Private yacht charters of 4 hour, 8 hour or full day yacht charters.
• Pleasure cruises and introduction to sailing sessions
• Learn to sail courses.

The Best Boat Hire in Adelaide

Disclosure: We love how our audience helps us grow. This post may contain affiliate links. Please check our disclosure policy for more information.

Adelaide is blessed with a beautiful coastline just waiting to be explored. Over the last few years, local boat rentals that offer private boat hire in Adelaide have been popping up all around the city! Compared to the East Coast, there are only a select few to choose from. But know that the teams running these hire operations are super passionate due to the amount of South Australian red tape they’ve had to get through to get up and running!

Whether you are looking for your next serious fishing boat hire, boat tuition to get more confidence, cruising along with friends and family on a lazy weekend, fun watersports, the ultimate party boat, a day on the water celebrating Australia Day or just to chill out, there really is something for everyone.

And let’s admit it, owning a boat can be a bit of a hassle . And an expensive hassle too! But by hiring a boat with one of these self-drive boat hires, not only do they launch and retrieve the boat for you (saving valuable time and stress queuing at the boat ramp), they offer induction and safety briefings, all the safety equipment needed and advice on local destinations and fishing spots. To make the experience even better, they also offer equipment to hire (fishing rods, eskies, etc), bait to purchase as well as an ultimate finale – cleaning the boat for you at the end of a windswept day. Perfect!

All of these reasons are why we chose to sell our boat and just hire one whenever we wanted to get out on the water. This has undoubtedly been cheaper over a 12 month period and much less hassle!

There is a range of self-drive hires where a boat licence is required. But there are also tuition hires, BBQ boats, River Cruisers and Charter hires where a boat licence isn’t needed to get you out on the water in no time! All of these boat rentals are within close proximity of Adelaide’s CBD.

Why not also check out our Top 12 Adelaide Boat Trips & Water Adventures post for the best water experiences – no boat licence required! Or thinking about getting your licence? Find out how to get your South Australian Boat Licence in this post or  find a local boat licence course near you .

We’ve done our fair share of boat hiring across Adelaide, and here are some of our favourites:

Self-Drive Boat Hire

1. b.a. boat hire.

What we love about Ben and his team at B.A. Boat Hire is that they’ve grown over the past couple of years to become one of the best Boat Hires in Adelaide. They now have 2 boats in the water – their 4.8m Bluefin Weekender and their new addition, a 6.5 Amara Centre Cabin – both perfect for South Australian Waters.

Check out our post about spending a day out on the water with B.A. Boat Hire or if you want to find out more about Ben and the team, read this informative conversation we had all about their boat hire in Adelaide and across South Australia .

B.A. Boat Hire also offers a range of Adelaide Fishing Charters to make it even easier for you to get out on the water!

The Vessels

Both vessels require a boat licence and are already available in the water, so you can walk on and walk off from North Haven or West Beach boat ramps. Both vessels are also available for towing to create your own adventure! Hire is available for half days, full days, weekends and extended hires.

Their smaller vessel, the Bluefin Weekender, licensed for 4 passengers, is ideal for someone who has just passed their boat licence or looking for an easy cruise, as this vessel is one of the easiest around to operate. With a 60hp Mercury 4-stroke engine, we can vouch for this easy handling as we loved the morning cruise we took last year in the Weekender! It’s stable, reactive, reliable and perfect for us bagging out on crabs during a stunning autumn morning.

Their newer, larger vessel, the Amara Centre Cabin, licensed for 6 passengers, is for the more serious water adventure. Centre Cabs are known for making some seriously dedicated fishing simple with their large decks and walk-around cabs, but easy work for a great family day out with plenty of room for 6 people. The added bonus to the Centre Cab is that it comes with a toilet for those full days out on the water.

Both vessels come with peace of mind that they are AMSA surveyed, have all quality safety equipment on board, Hummingbird GPS/fish finders with pre-loaded fishing spots, rod holders, bait boards, radio and shade – either a shade cover or the centre cab.

B.A. Boat Hire can also make quality fishing gear, eskies, and tackle boxes available at an additional cost for the perfect hassle-free day.

B.A. Boat can be launched from North Haven Boat Ramp and West Beach Boat Ramp.

Alternatively, you can tow the boat and trailer yourself (depending on meeting vehicle requirements) and head towards the Murray River, Riverland, Fleurieu Peninsula, Yorke Peninsula and beyond!

Boat tuition is also available – a boat licence is required.

Check out their website for more details, how to book and FAQ’s including the weights of each vessel if considering towing.

2. Port Adelaide Boat Hire

***Port Adelaide Boat Hire is no longer in operation***

The team at Port Adelaide are the latest kids on the block, turning Port Adelaide into the water playground it deserves. The Port is changing with so much residential and commercial development going on, so remember to book ahead with these guys as this area is getting busier and busier.

What started out as a couple of tinnies available from St. Kilda, Port Adelaide Boat Hire has grown into a daily operation from Port Adelaide Wharf. You can’t miss their blue information shed right on the water’s edge and offer a range of activities, not just boat hire.

Port Adelaide Boat Hire has 2 vessels – their 6.1m Bar Crusher, one of Australia’s favourite boats, and a 4m Tinny, both available for hire. For you to take the boat out on your own, you will need a valid boat licence that can be readily launched. And it’s not just Port Adelaide you can leave from. They also launch from North Haven boat ramp, Snowdens Beach and St. Kilda.

If we can give one bit of advice when it comes to using Port Adelaide Boat Hire, it is to consider where you are launching from. If you want to head out to sea from Port Adelaide, remember that it can take around 45 mins when sticking to the speed restrictions to travel along the Port River and Lipson Reach to reach the open water. Whilst this is a great way to explore the history and industry along South Australia’s largest port, it can be time-consuming, especially during a half-day hire. You would be better off launching straight from North Haven. Alternatively, have a chat with the team and see if you can launch and return from different locations.

Boat Tuition

Port Adelaide Boat Hire also offers a unique service in South Australia. Boat Tuition is available for anyone thinking about getting their South Australian boat licence or recently got one. Getting a boat licence in South Australia is one of the few licences you can get without actually having to do any practical assessment so offering this service makes perfect sense.

Maybe this is ideal for you if you are looking to get some extra confidence or have never driven a boat before. It would also make a perfect gift for someone special who is in the same boat (pun intended!). It could even be that you are considering purchasing a Bar Crusher – a perfect way to try before you buy.

Their boat tuition experience takes you through everything you need to know to be your very own skipper. From launching, handling, towing and steering, your ability to handle a boat in and out of the water will no doubt be greatly improved. And the best bit is, you can custom this tuition to your needs. If you know you’ll only ever use a tinny, perfect, just learn by using theirs. Or if you want to go big and bold, get behind the Bar Crusher and find out what Australia’s addiction to boating is all about!

You can choose how long and where you feel you’d like to improve. Alternatively, they can work out a perfect beginners course to give you the skills and knowledge you need for your boat licence, or to reinforce what you just learnt by sitting your licence. Tuition takes place along the Port River, which is an ideal environment to learn in – often protected by the elements, reasonably calm most of the year and plenty of space to perfect those turns.

Advanced boating tuition sessions are also available that include boat hire, fuel and tuition.

For more information about their boat tuition, check out their website.

Other activities

They also offer some other family activities to help get you out on the water.

Jump onboard their new Eco Tours, one of the few small boat tours available in Adelaide. Take the popular 2-hour tour as you venture right into the depths of the Port River, sharing the resident dolphins’ playground and exploring areas many cannot get to. Being on a smaller vessel, you can get amongst the mangroves, weave between the shipwrecks and spot as much wildlife as your eyes can take. Why not custom your own trip, perhaps even a night river tour?! Did we tell you Port Adelaide was seriously haunted?!

Or how about taking out one of their Paddle Boats and relaxing along the river…

Fancy kayaking? Explore all the hard to get to places, head towards Garden Island, watch out for playful dolphins who love to be nosey and discover the mysterious shipyard graves amongst the mangroves. The ideal way to have a water adventure at your own pace!

If you are looking for more information about Port Adelaide, check out our Port Adelaide Destination Guide for how to make the most of this unique South Australian Port!

Find lots more information about Port Adelaide Boat Hire on their website.

3. SA Boat Hire

SA Boat Hire is one of the longest-standing boat hire companies in Adelaide. Located in North Haven, the boat can be moored ready for your launch, or you can tow it to your destination. It comes fully equipped with all safety equipment, a Bimini for sun protection, GPS with fishing locations and a fish finder. SA Boat Hire also offers a range of other equipment to help make your adventure on the water hassle-free.

We personally don’t have experience with SA Boat Hire. After trying several times to book, we found the response to be that it was fully booked/unavailable. This may have changed with new boat hire operations now in full force in Adelaide, but just something we wanted to make you aware of.

SA Boat Hire offers an 1802 Trophy Fishing Boat with either a 2 or 4 stroke engine. This vessel is a good size to walk around, perfect when fishing or cruising along enjoying the sun. This is also a cut-out cabin making an ideal space to relax or get out of the elements if needed.

Services are offered for full days only with a difference in pricing for walk on, walk off and pick up and tow options.

A bond of $1000 is required and will be refunded provided there is no damage to the vessel or equipment.

For more information, check out their website.

4. Show & Go

Show & Go, located on Brighton Road, Somerton Park, are more known for its motorcycle rentals but does also have a couple of boats for hire. These boats are available on trailers only and not for a walk on, walk off service.

We also don’t have experience in using Show & Go hire services as we struggled with their availability. However, we have seen the boats at the back of their store in Somerton Park, and all we can say is that they look well used. We got the impression when trying to book that regulars use these vessels and have done for a while. That’s all we are saying!

Show & Go offer a 4.5m Brooker 40HP vessel with forward controls and an electric start. A fold-down Bimini is available for shade and comes with all safety equipment. The boat is licensed for 4 people and has night navigational lights for night use.

They also have a 3.1m Stacer which is available with no engine. Alternatively, a 5HP Mariner Engine can be hired for use.

Find more information on their website about pricing and how to contact Show & Go directly.

River Boats for Hire

These round inflatable boats are becoming a popular way to chill out on the water and to no surprise because this experience is the ultimate way to enjoy relaxing on the water.

5. BBQ Buoys

BBQ Buoys offer a range of alcohol (no BYO alcohol, and the skipper needs to be well behaved) and food packages, consisting of meat and grazing platters. But you can take your own food too. Onboard you’ll find the use of a centrally located BBQ for everyone (or wooden board if a BBQ is not required), table, esky, ice, cutlery, plates, cups and the all-important Bluetooth speakers. Perfect for any special occasion!

There are traditional packages available for 2 people right through to 10 people along with special events such as New Year’s Eve and Date Nights!

A boat licence is not needed to hire a BBQ Buoy, but a car licence is needed, and to be at least 21 years of age.

The more mates you bring along for fun, the cheaper the experience! For more information and to find out about their Drinks & Food Menu, check out the pricing section of their website.

6. Portobello River Cruises

The latest edition to the new inflatable trend in Adelaide is the Portobello River Cruises. These inflatable vessels are a unique way to enjoy the gorgeous Port River with its resident dolphins, especially during a magical sunset.

Portobello Food.Kitchen.Bar is a locally well-known waterfront cafe/restaurant situated in New Port, just next to Port Adelaide. This experience brings their culinary delights floating outdoors, taking alfresco to a whole new level!

Portobello River Cruisers seat from 1 – 6 people with ample space to enjoy the setting. Food and drinks can be pre-ordered from the onboard menu. There aren’t any cooking facilities onboard but trust us, you won’t want them when you see what’s on offer from Portobello! There is something for everyone with a range of snacks, platters, pizzas, wine, beers, ciders and soft drinks.

Check out their onboard menu for more information.

Luxury Yacht Rental in South Australia

Luxury yacht charter guide to south australia.

Undulating hills dressed in the finest vineyards, sparkling blue seas, and relaxed cities that don’t care to pick up the pace – chartering a yacht to South Australia is all chill. As one of the driest regions in Australia, the weather down south paves the way for balmy days where all you want to do is duck into cool cellar doors and dive in the sea. Some of Australia’s best wildlife can also be found down this way, as can a plethora of pretty landscapes, from craggy coves to scenes straight out of the wild west and bright and tidy cities.

Reasons to Charter a Yacht to South Australia

A feast of fine wines.

The fertile hills of the Barossa Valley boast the best conditions for vine growing. As pretty as a picture, this whole area is dedicated to the delectable art of farm to table produce and beautiful bottles. As the oldest grape growing region, Barossa makes for a fabulous place to visit vineyards, indulge in endless tastings, and take long lingering luncheons at incredible restaurants, along with taking a cooking class or two.

An Ocean Playground

The Fleurieu Peninsula is a beautiful blue playground for those who love to participate in watersports. Whether its snorkeling the surface to gaze at the shimmering creatures below, whale watching out in the deeper dreamier depths, sunning yourself on sandy inlets, or kayaking down sweet water channels, South Australia has no shortage of gorgeous stretches of sand and sea whether you want an adrenaline surge or a simple hammock swaying day.

National Park Perfection

A glut of National Parks and incredibly versatile scenery make South Australia an amazing charter destination. From crystal clear crater lakes sitting in the stomach of ancient volcanoes to natural sinkhole gardens where calla lilies bloom, caves as deep as man could ever dream to go, and glittering opal mines. There’s an endless array of striking visual pleasures to keep you enchanted on this lesser known coast.

Where to Visit in South Australia

Often pushed aside for the seemingly more vibrant shores of Melbourne and Sydney, Adelaide is picking up pace. The sophisticated city is a vision of stunning architecture, endless church spires puncturing the skyline, and a whole host of hip little bars and multicultural eateries to feed your foodie fantasies. The central market, the art galleries, and the port all add towards a perfect day of stepping ashore, and the live music scene is truly putting this South Aussie gem on the map.

Kangaroo Island

Aptly named, Kangaroo Island is a world of sparkling blue waters, tapered green coastline, and a whole host of land and sea animals turning this island into a must anchor spot for yacht charters. Sitting just off the Fleurieu Peninsula, Kangaroo Island is home to fascinating natural features like the wind-hewn rocks of Flinders Chase National Park. Divers and snorkelers will also delight in sharing the warm blue waters with sea lions, penguins, and all kinds of colorful urchins and sea dragons.

Eyre Peninsula

If you want to steer clear of the crowds, the Eyre Peninsular will grant you endless space. Tucked away beaches are kept sheltered by soaring cliffs and there’s an array of bucket list adventures waiting to change your world. From cage diving with great white sharks to swimming with sea lions and taking a 4X4 into the rugged red dust of the outback, this is a wilder side to the Australian coast. Over in Port Lincoln and you can taste some of the best seafood the country has to offer thanks to the deep-water fishing that makes this area so popular for enthusiasts.

When to Charter a Yacht to South Australia

There’s a wide window of time to visit South Australia on a yacht charter. From March right the way through until November, these shores offer plenty of sunshine. If you want to skip out on the hottest parts of the summer, then March to May is soft and pleasant. Winters tend to be mild but can be rainy.

Mystery superyacht The Felix is docked in the Port River, but who owns it?

IT’S the superyacht that has Port Adelaide buzzing with ­rumours. Is it a Hollywood hunk’s floating palace? A luxury base for a billionaire for a penchant for batteries and space rockets?

Don't miss out on the headlines from SA News. Followed categories will be added to My News.

• Chris Hemsworth jets into SA with his family
• Elon Musk’s ‘space’ Tesla headed for asteroid belt
• Thor goes swimming with the locals on KI

IT’S the super yacht that has Port Adelaide buzzing with ­rumours. Could it be Hollywood hunk Chris Hemsworth’s floating palace while on Tourism Australia duties, or a luxury base for Elon Musk while keeping an eye on his big battery?

The Felix is moored at Port Adelaide after meandering down the east coast with stops in Sydney and Hobart.

The former research vessel was converted to be the super yacht Amadeus in 2007 for French luxury goods billionaire Bernard Arnault.

It was renamed the Felix in early 2016 following its sale to a mystery buyer for an undisclosed price. At the time one valuation put it at being worth 65 million euro ($A100 million).

Felix is a world away from a fishing tinny. The 70m ship is configured to take 12 guests in six cabins, plus 18 crew, with ­facilities such as jacuzzi, gym, cinema, elevator serving three decks and golf driving range.

In 2008 the Power and Motor Yacht website listed it as the 64th largest motor yacht in the world, noting “Former British prime minister Tony Blair, his wife Cherie, and rock star Bono cruised together aboard this yacht last summer”.

What Felix is doing in Adelaide is a mystery, although there are many theories. Comments on social media include claims it is owned by a North American businessman.

Meanwhile, Chris Hems­worth has left SA and Elon Musk has been busy launching a rocket taking one of his Tesla cars into space.

Meet the Captain

Like many of the best captains, Captain Christopher has the mind of an engineer and the soul of a sailor. He brings an easy-going British charm to Adelaide, which makes guests feel instantly at-home. However, underneath that easy-going exterior, he is an extremely skilled captain. That means you can relax, knowing you are in great hands. ​

Jon Halliburton

I have had the unique pleasure of sailing with Captain Christopher Curran's "Adelaide" many times over the past couple of years and have been very impressed with the high quality of the vessel, his knowledge and passion for sailing and the warm welcome he and his crew have offered me and my guests. You can get super involved in the sailing adventure or sit back, relax and let the Captain and his crew handle everything. Catering options and various embarkation times are offered - I prefer the sunset cruise! I'll be booking another sailing adventure soon and so should you!

Adelaide is one of Australia’s best-kept travel secrets

World-class wine, outstanding beaches and idyllic hills regions.

Adelaide is South Australia’s culture capital, smaller in size than its East Coast counterparts, but with a rich calendar of festivals and events running throughout the year. Fringed by long-reaching picturesque beaches to the west and lush hills to the east, Adelaide is the essence of small city charm. The city centre is easily navigable and just over 1-mile square, meaning the major sites such as the Adelaide Oval, South Australian Museum, and the Botanical Gardens, as well as the finest restaurants and hottest bars are within easy walking distance.

The unique cultural-heritage of Adelaide gives the city a look and feel unlike any other Australian capital city, and the  close proximity to tourist favourites such as the  Barossa Valley  and  Kangaroo Island  make this a popular addition to an Australian journey.

With  an unavoidable passion for fine wine and exceptional food , unique architecture and easy access to some of the most iconic Australian destinations, Adelaide is understated and unassuming in beauty and character, but an absolute must.

• Adelaide is the gateway to South Australia’s most iconic food and wine destinations, begin your South Australian journey with a stay at the beautiful  Mayfair Hotel .
• The  Adelaide Central Markets  are a hub of international cuisines, and sells some of the freshest produce available, join an Adelaide Central Market Private tour and prepare to be amazed.
• See the city from atop  Adelaide Oval , those 360 scenic views will be sure to mesmerise you.

Seasons in Adelaide

Adelaide typically experiences four distinct seasons, all bringing different types of weather and seasonal activities.

Summer  in Adelaide is from December and February and the days are typically dry and warm, with average temperatures sitting at 16.7 – 28.6° C (62 – 83.5° F).  Winter  is from June to August and are often colder, with temperatures ranging between 8 – 16C (46.5 – 60.8F).  Autumn  and  Spring  are both incredibly pleasant seasons to spend in Adelaide, with temperatures sitting between 11.8 – 22.7° C (53.2 – 73° F).
