Stansbury Seaside Markets are one of Southern Yorke Peninsula's biggest coastal markets, held on the foreshore at Oyster Bay during the warmer months.

Visitors notice the atmosphere before they even reach the foreshore. Cars fill the streets and people make their way down with shopping bags in hand. Then comes the sea breeze, the sound of the crowd and the smell of coffee, hot doughnuts and breakfast cooking nearby.

The size often surprises first-time visitors. More than seventy stallholders regularly fill the foreshore, with some taking double sites. Long-time traders return alongside new stallholders, which keeps the market familiar without feeling the same.

Visitors can browse fresh produce, baked goods, clothing, jewellery, homewares, plants, gifts and handmade products. Farm gate oysters are available when in season. Food stalls, local producers and live music add to the atmosphere.

The setting is a big part of what makes the market special. Stalls spread across the foreshore with Oyster Bay, the jetty and the beach close by.

Stansbury Seaside Markets are also a genuine community event. They are run by volunteers and supported by local community groups, with locals, holidaymakers and visitors from across Yorke Peninsula all mixing together.

It is busy, relaxed and unmistakably Stansbury. A small coastal town putting on a market that feels much bigger than expected.

The Yorke Peninsula is the traditional lands of the Narungga (Nharangga) people, who have lived on, and cared for, this country since the beginning of time. We work, live and travel on Nharannga Banggara [Country], and we take time away from those pursuits to acknowledge and pay our deep respects to the Nharangga Elders of the past and present. 

Today, it is essential that we continue to care for and protect our spectacular natural environment. Tread lightly and leave no trace. Learn more about responsible and respectful travel on Yorke Peninsula.
