Throw out a rug and picnic on the banks of the river, or savour a glass of local wine, a locally distilled gin and whiskey, an amazing coffee, a gourmet cooked breakfast on the Goolwa Wharf, or sampling local seafood at the Kuti Shack on Goolwa Beach - it's all on your doorstep and only a couple of minutes walk away. The unique combination of river, lake and beach on your doorstep provides endless options for summer aquatic adventures including swimming, sailing, wakeboarding, water skiing, kayaking, paddleboarding, jet skiing, surfing, boogie boarding, kitesurfing and fishing. Keen fishermen are spoilt for choice. Just throw a line off the wharf just 50 metres from your door to fish for Callop, Bream, Perch, Redfin, Murray Cod, freshwater shrimp and yabbies while watching the pelicans out-fish you! Or for the more adventurous, fish the barrage, Beacon 19, Murray Mouth, Coorong or surf-fish the 11km of pristine Goolwa Beach, fully accessible by 4WD. A two minute drive (or 10 minute walk) from The Admiral Riverside Studios will have you at Goolwa Beach – one of the most beautiful and untouched parts of the South Australian coastline. Head down the ramp and onto the beach itself and drive on the perfect white sand beach for 11kms to the Murray Mouth – the end of Murray River, the entrance to the Coorong and home to a colony of seals and numerous school fish which move freely through this unique and pristine channel which is not accessible by any other means. The Admiral Riverside Studios are a perfect choice for a short or extended stay when visiting Goolwa and the Fleurieu Peninsula.

Very small studio, which was fine, however no toaster for slice of toast and coffee in the morning. TV didn’t work in media room. Maybe control needed new batteries. Said there was a pool???
We bumped into a couple of friends on the wharf, but due to Studio restrictions we could not have them over for a drink. Beautiful outdoor setting, but no bbq to cook with, even if we were allowed.
Overall beautiful and clean, perfect location, but probably wouldn’t go back. Too many restrictions 🙁

Had a wonderful 2 night stay in this cute little studio. Room was a little smaller than we were expecting, but the view made up for it. Loved the media room too, perfect spot for a movie night in. Will definitely be back :-)

Advertised as a studio, but it is a small bedroom with a nice ensuite.
Missing the basics-, toaster, microwave, cereal bowls,cutlery , wi fi
The small open verandah was exposed to cold and rain, shame that it has not been glassed in as the view was great.

Very chic studio. There is another adjoining which would be excellent if two couples were traveling together as you could meet on the shared balcony. Or even a third larger group in the cottage below the studios. Would be excellent for three groups to stay together while maintaining individual private accommodation.
