Overview

Tailem Bend lies on the lower Murray River, 85 km south‑east of Adelaide, and recorded 1,705 residents in the 2021 Census. Bounded by river cliffs and the Adelaide–Melbourne railway, the town offers river recreation, a strong agricultural base of pig, dairy, grain and olive production, and attractions such as the nearby Bend Motorsport Park and Old Tailem Town Pioneer Village. The Coorong District Council offices, town hall and local parks provide community services.

Transport links are a highlight. The A1 highway and the junction of the Princes and Dukes Highways pass through town, just 20 km from the South Eastern Freeway’s Adelaide end, and a cable ferry connects to Jervois across the Murray. The railway station serves freight and occasional passenger services, and interstate buses stop here, making Tailem Bend a regular rest point for truck drivers and offering diverse housing for residents and visitors.
