Semaphore Jetty

Semaphore Jetty stretches out into the gulf from the Esplanade at Semaphore, a historic seaside suburb in Adelaide's north-west. A beloved local landmark, the long timber jetty is a quintessential part of the charming Semaphore foreshore — perfect for a stroll out over the water, fishing, taking in the sunset or simply soaking up the nostalgic seaside atmosphere.

The appeal is that combination of an easy, scenic outing and the old-fashioned charm of the Semaphore foreshore: the walk along the jetty, the gulf and beach views, and the relaxed seaside vibe, with the suburb's cafes, shops and the beach all close by. It's a peaceful, picturesque spot that's free to enjoy.

With a 4.7 rating from more than 500 reviews, it's a much-loved landmark. The jetty is free and open, but it's exposed to the weather and conditions vary, so it's worth checking before you go — and taking sun protection or a jacket depending on the day, while enjoying the views and the classic seaside charm that make Semaphore Jetty such a local favourite, especially at sunset.
