Yitpi Yartapuultiku, SA

Yitpi Yartapuultiku, meaning ‘Soul of Port Adelaide’ in Kaurna, will be a new Aboriginal Cultural Destination in Port Adelaide. The design concept includes South Australia's first large scale Living Shoreline which acts as an ecological response to safeguarding the site from erosion and sea level rise and will profile key elements of our local environment.
