Sunset Watching

Glenelg faces due west across Gulf St Vincent, giving it one of Adelaide's best-known sunset spots. The jetty is oriented perfectly to capture the sun dropping into the gulf, with the sky turning through shades of gold, orange and pink most clear evenings, year-round.

Durham Serviced Apartments sits just a short walk from the beach, making it easy to head down for sunset without any planning required. Whether it is a spot on the sand, a walk out along the jetty, or a drink at one of the marina bars overlooking the water, the whole foreshore turns toward the west as the light starts to change.

Locals treat sunset at Glenelg as something of a daily ritual, with the beach and jetty filling up as the sky shifts colour. Staying at Durham means catching it is never a special occasion, just a short stroll from the apartment whenever the evening looks right for it.
