The Hundred of Port Adelaide is a cadastral unit of hundred covering the vicinity of Port Adelaide, Lefevre Peninsula and the coast of the central Adelaide Plains south of Gawler River and west of Port Wakefield Road.[1] It is one of the eleven hundreds of the County of Adelaide[2] and was named in 1846 by Governor Frederick Robe.

The modern local government areas intersecting the Hundred of Port Adelaide are the portion of the City of Port Adelaide Enfield north of Grand Junction Road (that is, approximately the former City of Port Adelaide) and the non-urbanised portion of the City of Salisbury west of Port Wakefield Road.
