A relaxed city with a penchant for hedonism, Adelaide combines a big dollop each of beaches, wine, nightclubs, restaurants and festivals to form a top-notch concoction.
Massive parks in the center mean you can relax all day, while great restaurants serving international cuisine as well as subtle but lively nightclubs mean you can happily occupy yourself after dark too.
Loads of museums and art galleries, sports-mad locals and a rich tradition of festivals typify the high cultural stock here.
The wine produced in the region is rightly world-famous; take a tour of one of the vineyards for a hazy day out. If you get bored of wine, food and culture, you can always hit the beach or head to the city’s rival, Melbourne.
