About Us
Stella Maris – Port Adelaide had its beginning under Father James Tuohy at Saint Joseph’s Orphanage, Largs Bay. The next location was the British Sailors’ Society in Port Adelaide. It then moved to the Yongala Street Community Centre at Taperoo. In 2006, Stella Maris moved to our present location.The Stella Maris Port Adelaide Seafarers Centre (Formerly Apostleship of the Sea) is located at 437 Victoria Rd, Taperoo, South Australia. We are a caring and Christian society made up of non-paid volunteers aligned to the Catholic Church, offering pastoral care, services and support for visiting seafarers irrespective of race, colour or creed.
