Stella Maris – Port Adelaide

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

441 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.

PLEASE NOTE:

Our centre at Taperoo will be closed from Christmas Eve to New Year's Day (24/12/22 - 1/1/23), reopening on Monday 2nd January.
