Other things to note
MESA del mar is approx. 46kms from the Adelaide Airport and 48kms from the CBD - we suggest you allow 1 hour travel time.

If travelling from interstate or overseas, we recommend that you hire a vehicle for your stay. Taxis and Ubers are scarce at Aldinga Beach and to truly explore the region, it’s best to have your own car.

See our other listing for information about booking the entire property for groups of up to 8 guests.
