A Perfect Blend – Wine, Golf, Hot Springs
The Mornington Peninsula is a small, beautiful and fascinating region of extraordinary contrasts. There are three spectacular coastlines, dozens of beaches and welcoming villages, 19 outstanding golf courses and more than 50 cellar doors scattered right along the coast and through the hinterland. With over 10% of Victoria’s shoreline, this unique area offers fabulous diving and snorkelling, marine national parks and more than 60 shipwrecks.
The sea air is utterly pure and refreshing, and is best enjoyed swimming with dolphins, relaxing in geothermal springs, exploring maritime and military history or simply marvelling at quaint jetties, bathing boxes and cliff top mansions from a cruise along the bays.
Wildlife Encounters, Garden and Walking Adventures
Magnificent landscapes, glorious gardens, wildlife sanctuaries and almost 3000 hectares of local, state and national parks offer an abundance of nature and wildlife activities.
Hundreds of great walking trails are scattered throughout the region, including the 100km Mornington Peninsula Walk which takes in the Two Bays Trail, Coastal Walk and Point Nepean. It’s an all-out adventure on the Mornington Peninsula with horse riding on an ocean beach, tree surfing, tube sliding, multiple mazes and stand up paddling.
