My favourite secret spot

Posted 16 August 2008 by Linh from Vietnam

One of the best things about being a StudyAdelaide student Ambassador is that I’ve got to make some great friends and we get to do some cool stuff. Just after I started as an Ambassador we got to go kayaking at Port Adelaide on the Port River.

I had never been in a kayak before and was a bit nervous but our instructor, Tom, had a great way of explaining how not to fall out of the boat. When we got on the water we paddled up stream and then in amongst the mangroves. It was amazing to find out that a place like this existed so close to the centre of the city.

Maybe the best part was when we saw a dolphin and its baby swimming towards us. They did not stay for very long, they swam away, but Tom says he sees them all the time. Because I did not know about this place I think it is one of Adelaide’s best kept secrets. What is you favourite secret spot in South Australia?
