    Had one of the best experiences here in December. Restaurant near by. A broader beach area. Sea here is good for a swim, public toilets and bathing area is there. Beautiful scenary from the caves, best place for photography. A good place to set a beach tent and have family time. Nice view for sun set.

    Beautiful beach. Clean area. Good for taking photos as there are caves where fishermen used to store their boats and nets. Incredible rock formation. Many dogs whilst we were there. Ample parking area with toilet facilities.

    This is one iconic beach on the Victor Harbour stretch. The pics attached says it all. The caves are supposedly many many years old made by the fishermen to store their fishing gears. The sunset here will blow your mind.

    I dreamed of starry nights, lying in one of these caves listening to the lapping waves. This impressively beautiful place is just over 40km from the CBD, a little over 30 minutes drive. The beach is filled with lovely pebbles of all colors, sizes and shapes. The perfect place to walk, watch the sunset and soak up the sea breezes, or swim in the mesmerizing waves.

    It is a very popular beach for locals and tourists. It is an ideal spot for those long beach walks on the sand and photography shoot during late afternoon for golden cliff faces, a nearby shipwreck and caves.

    Port Willunga Beach is a wonderful and distinctive beach in Adelaide. In addition to the wide and flat beach, there are caves which once were used to store fisherman boats, the remains of port willunga jetty and a sunken ship named Star of Greece off the coast. But the sand on the beach here is not pure, mixed with many small stones. Parking and dining are very convenient.

    Willunga Beach and beaches close by are an amazing experience to kayak along. Watch the wind directions for a safer lunch and return to beach

    This is a great spot to relax and enjoy nature. You can explore the caves and see the amazing rock formations. You can also stroll along the beach and feel the breeze on your face. There are toilets, a cafe and a picnic area for your convenience. I love coming here whenever I can.

    We visited Port Willunga twice in 12 months and the second time was better with less crowds end of March. The tide was out further than our first visit and it was still just as beautiful

    Such a beautiful beach to go and visit. This beach has lots of pebbles and rocks near the old jetty ruins. This beach is pristine with no sea weed and clear blue water. This beach is definitely worth the trip. This beach has toilets and a shower up top next to the car park at one of the ramps. I spent hours at this beach both a lone and with my kids and we have all had a ball. Such a beautiful beach to explore.

    Discovered this wonderful beach during our getaway from Melbourne. Calm and peaceful beach. There was a gentle ramp walk from the parking to the beach. And in return you would enjoy a lovely beach with a secret cave and surrounded by rocky cliffs.

    This beautiful beach is not crowded - offers marvellous views and sands to set your chairs and soak in sunshine, walk / swim with your best friends, give it a go with beach volleyball. If you love adventure go for snorkelling try to find treasures from sunken ship iconic โ€œStar of Greeceโ€ or keep your kids busy in the caves ๐Ÿ˜„. Car park, toilet, BBQ and restaurant- everything is there all you need ๐Ÿ‘.

    Beautiful beach, white sand, crystal clear waters. Safe for swimming and water sports. Toilets nearby, limited parking, and the iconic Star of Greece restaurant on the cliff top. A must visit whist in Adelaide.

    There is something magical about this place! From the beautiful beaches, the caves to take shelter in on a hot day to the water which is just so refreshing. This is a beautiful part of the South Australian coast. A must stop if you're in the area with some lovely food options near by. Grab some food, have a picnic on the beach and then cool off in the water. Stop by during sunrise or sunset to take some lovely photos.

    Amazing Long Beach with spectacular cliff faces. The water is so clear with beautiful sandy beach. Weโ€™ll protected from southerly winds. Stand up paddle boards were available for hire on the beach. Fantastic amenities with toilets and showers available in the car parking area. The Star of Greece also provides a cafe for affordable lunches and drinks. No cars in this beach also makes for a more relaxing experience. Overall an amazing beach, probably my favorite on the peninsula.

    Very good place :) This is a good place to take a walk or play in the water. There are also small caves, so it is fun to visit, and the wind blows coolly.

    Beautiful beach stretching a popular part of South Australia's coastline. Takes me back to my childhood inhaling the ocean.

  • 5/5 Mark B. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful beach for walk or swim. Walk north towards Maslins or south towards Aldinga. Great cliffs rock formations. Come back along cliff top path north or Esplanade walk south.

  • 5/5 Sarah N. 1 year ago on Google
    Pretty beach with some cool caves and a derelict pier. Cafe and car park on the cliff top. Very busy area.

    If I could give this beach 100 stars I would - this has got to be one of the most beautiful beaches in Australia - the water is crystal clear, the sand so clean & fair, the scenery - OMGโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ. If youโ€™re visiting Sth Aust or live in Sth Australia, or love beaches or whatever - you MUST come check this out for yourself, itโ€™s heaven at the beach!

    Port Willunga Beach is a stunning destination for anyone who loves nature, history and adventure. The beach is located about 35 km south of Adelaide, and features **golden cliffs**, **crystal clear waters** and **soft white sands** that squeak between your toes[^2^]. It is also home to the **Port Willunga Caves**, which are natural formations carved by the sea over thousands of years. The caves are a popular spot for photography, especially at sunset when they glow with warm colors[^4^]. The beach also has a rich history, as it was once a busy port for grain and slate exports. You can still see the remains of the **Port Willunga Jetty**, which was built in 1853 and destroyed by a storm in 1915[^1^]. The jetty is one of the most photographed landmarks on the beach, and adds a touch of nostalgia to the scenery. If you are into diving or snorkeling, you can also explore the wreck of the **Star of Greece**, a ship that sank near the shore in 1888[^1^]. The ship was carrying wheat and passengers, and 18 people died in the tragedy. The wreck is now home to various marine life, and can be seen at low tide[^4^]. Port Willunga Beach is not only a place to relax and enjoy the views, but also a place to have fun and try new things. You can go for a walk along the coast, swim in the calm waters, surf the waves, fish from the shore or the jetty, or have a picnic on the grassy area above the beach. There are also several cafes and restaurants nearby, including the famous **Star of Greece restaurant**, which offers delicious seafood and stunning views along the coast[^1^]. Port Willunga Beach is one of my favorite places to visit in South Australia, and I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a beautiful and memorable experience. It is a place where you can connect with nature, learn about history and have some fun at the same time.

    Use the caves to there fullest, take a picnic and lunch inside the caves. Safe beaches, well populated with swimmers. Parking, a cafe to wash the sand away with a few drinks and a meal. Worth a visit.

    One of South Australia's premier beaches, it's a perfect place to spend a summer day with friends and family. There are toilet facilities, an awesome cafe on the waterfront, sandstone cliffs and of course, beautiful clean, clear water to swim in. It's an easy place to park and walk down to, and there is an access point at the northern end if you have a pram or a wheelchair.
