Welcome to the Port Adelaide Rowing Club. 

Our rowing club will soon celebrate 150 years on the Port River estuary. We are a community club with long roots in this community and links across SA, Australia and the world. We cater for a wide range of rowing abiltiies and interests.

This is a beautiful and varied environment for rowing. We are proud to have access to many kilometers of water, which we share with other river users including dolphins, stingrays and marine and bird life. As we also share the river with container ships, tug boats, motor boats, sailing boats and all manner of river craft, there are strict rules for use of the waterways.

You can join us as a rowing member, a gym member or a social member. Other organisations and individuals can hire our clubrooms, and rowing clubs can hire racks, motor dinghies and boats, subject to availability. Guest members from other rowing clubs are also welcome for a row.

Please get in touch with us if you would like to be part of our community.

There are no upcoming events.
