Experience Adelaide, with Hertz
Adelaide is such an exciting city. Known as the ‘Festival City’, the ‘City of Churches’, and the ‘City of Parks’, there are a plethora of things that you can get up to while you’re staying in Plympton.
Plus, Plympton is in close proximity to some gorgeous beaches: Glenelg Beach, for example, is just a ten-minute drive away. The beaches in Adelaide are simply spectacular. The best part about many of them is that they are city beaches, meaning many choose to drive across town for a lunchtime swim before getting on with the rest of their days. It’s certainly true that a rental car will give you endless freedom to pop by the beaches of Glenelg, West Beach, and Henley Beach whenever you please.
As we’ve mentioned, Adelaide is also known as the Festival City. Indeed, one of the main attractions of the South Australian capital is the seemingly never-ending festival calendar. All year long, this city plays host to some fantastic local, national, and international acts. For example, the Adelaide Fringe Festival is the second-largest in the world, and with more than 600,000 attendees each year, it’s a clear favourite amongst the theatre world for new and upcoming works. Another popular choice is the WOMADelaide: a multicultural four-day festival that celebrates dance, music, and art. You’ll be in the best location to enjoy the hustle and bustle of the celebrations during the day, before driving home to your Plympton location and enjoying the calmness of this suburb.
Of course, there’s plenty to see and do if you’d like to stay away from the festivities. For example, the Adelaide Botanic Gardens are just a 15-minute drive away. With over 50 hectares of native and foreign plants, it’s the perfect green escape after a busy day. Walk through and admire the Victorian architecture, the plants, and of course, the beautiful gardens.
