Mornington Peninsula

» Click Here For A List Of Accommodation

The Mornington Peninsula is located on the eastern side of Port Phillip Bay and feels likes an island with ocean to the south and bays and sheltered beaches on either side. Rolling green hills roll down to pretty beaches or harbours and serene bay views. The peninsula offers some of Australia’s best sandy beaches with every kind of water activity available, from sailing and fishing to surfing and dolphin swims. Majestic coastal walks past dune, cliffs, lighthouses and beaches offer a stunning backdrop to an ideal holiday destination.

Alternatively head inland and explore the abundance of vineyards and orchards tucked away among the rolling hills of Red Hill and Main Ridge. Wineries and restaurants overlook the blue waters of Port Phillip Bay to the west and Western Port Bay to the east and the peninsula's orchards sell fresh produce direct from the farm gate. For anybody who has ever teed up, the Mornington Peninsula is golfing heaven. Take on the daunting Moonah Links, specifically designed for the prestigious Australian Open, or head to The Dunes, a Scottish-style links layout rated as one of the top 15 courses in Australia.

The Mornington Peninsula can be described as an idyllic place, only a short drive from shimmering coastal bays to fine vineyards in the country. You can dine on fresh seafood overlooking the beach or dine on aged beef overlooking the vines. Just an hours drive from Melbourne, it’s the perfect place for a quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle of the big city life. Give yourself a good week though, with the amount of activities and scenery to absorb, you’re going to need as much time as possible. The peninsula has turned luxury weekends and holidays into a must. There’s effortless blending of exquisite boutique retreats, country style hotels, indulgent day spas and remarkable food and wine. Nature thrusts its way in adding the staggering coastal and country landscapes.

A string of accommodation styles drifts its way through the area with sparkling lights on sunset and warm summer nights. Enjoy cocktails and fine local wines from your balcony or seclude yourself in a luxurious bed and breakfast with a warm blanket on those cold winter nights. The Mornington Peninsula offers a wonderful retreat to get away from busy lifestyles. It’s a perfect place to take the family for your next holiday, or even escape for the weekend with a special someone, to experience one of Australia’s best kept secrets.
