Renter's guide
Glenelg is Adelaide's favourite beach suburb, where the tram from the city meets Jetty Road's shops and the foreshore. It mixes apartments, units and coastal homes.
Getting around
The Glenelg tram runs straight to the Adelaide CBD; very walkable along Jetty Road and the beach.
Safety
Busy and family-friendly; generally safe, with normal care on busy summer nights near the foreshore.
Amenities & lifestyle
Glenelg Beach and jetty, Jetty Road dining and retail, the marina at Holdfast Shores and seasonal events.
Pros
- Beachside with a direct tram to the city
- Lively Jetty Road strip
- Plenty of apartment options
Cons
- Higher rents near the beach
- Very busy in peak summer
- Salt air increases upkeep
Renter tips
- Check window seals and balconies for salt-air wear
