What beach activities should we do in Adelaide?

There are plenty of cafes and restaurants along the foreshore, making it convenient for lunch or an afternoon ice cream. Families will find Glenelg particularly suitable due to its gentle waves and the nearby Moseley Square, which often hosts events and has a playground.If you're looking for a slightly more secluded experience, Grange Beach offers a quieter alternative, just a short drive north of Glenelg. It's known for its long jetty, which is great for a leisurely walk or fishing. The waters here are also calm, making it a pleasant spot for a swim without the larger crowds. Couples might appreciate the more peaceful setting for a romantic walk along the sand as the sun sets.Both Glenelg and Grange provide excellent opportunities for stand-up paddleboarding or kayaking in the calm gulf waters.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a beach hotel in Adelaide as a package?
Booking a beach hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking a beach vacation package well in advance.

With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my beach hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival.
