Clipper Ship City of Adelaide

The Clipper Ship City of Adelaide sits at the dock on Honey Street in Port Adelaide, the historic port district north-west of the Adelaide CBD. A genuinely significant maritime heritage attraction, it's the world's oldest surviving clipper ship — a remarkable, historic sailing vessel preserved for its extraordinary history of carrying migrants to Australia, the kind of fascinating, one-of-a-kind piece of maritime history.

The appeal is that combination of genuine, world-significant maritime heritage and a fascinating story: the chance to see and learn about the oldest surviving clipper ship, its role in bringing migrants to South Australia and its remarkable preservation, makes for a memorable and meaningful visit for history buffs, families and anyone interested in maritime and migration history. It's a distinctive Port Adelaide highlight.

With a 4.6 rating from more than 430 reviews, it's clearly a much-loved attraction. Opening days, admission, tours and any special events vary — and a heritage ship attraction often opens on particular days — so it's worth checking current details before you go, particularly to confirm opening days and times, then enjoying the history of the Clipper Ship City of Adelaide at Port Adelaide.
