About Peninsula Records and Books

Who we are

We’re not just a store. We’re the kind of people at a party who’ll ask what your first concert was, then tell you ours (Bryan Adams BTW). We’re nostalgic and a bit nerdy, sentimental about physical things, and still believe the best moments begin with: you have to hear this or you have to read this.

Where you can find us

Peninsula Records and Books is a proudly South Australian online store and indie shopfront located in the quiet coastal town of Stansbury on the Yorke Peninsula, a place that holds our hearts. We’re the only record store on the entire Yorke Peninsula, and the only bookshop in Stansbury, and while we might be small, we’re absolutely worth the detour.

But we're also online (obviously!) 

Online is where most people find us, and it’s the future of what we do. Every single item you see on our site is physically in stock, dispatched same-day from South Australia and chosen by us . We sell great books and records we actually care about.

What we stock

Our collection of books is exclusively Australian, from debut voices to legendary authors. Our vinyl records span all genres, both local and global, with a deep love for Australian music. We also stock second-hand records that match the vibe, and source imports to bring hard-to-find albums home, including Aussie titles that frustratingly only ship from overseas.

But more than what we sell, we care about why people buy it. 
Because it reminds them of something.
Because they want to slow down.
Because physical things matter.
Because they’re building collections that say something about who they are. 
We’re here for that. And if we can help you find your next favourite, even better.
