Port Adelaide Enfield

Port Adelaide Enfield, chief port of South Australia, on an estuarine-tidal inlet of Gulf St. Vincent, just northwest of central Adelaide. The harbour, sheltered by a long sand spit to the west, was visited in 1831 by Captain Collet Barker and was made the port for Adelaide in 1840. Port Adelaide was incorporated as a town in 1855 and became a city in 1901; it merged with the neighbouring city of Enfield (east) in 1996....
