Mornington Peninsula

The Mornington Peninsula is renowned for award-winning wineries and restaurants, glorious beaches and natural beauty, only an hour from Melbourne.

Take in fabulous views from Arthurs Seat or Point Nepean. See historic botanic gardens, manicured grounds of heritage mansions, hedge mazes and magnificent private gardens.

Explore the region's national parks with their secluded bays, rugged headlands and scenic lookouts. Make the most of the network of on- and off-road bike paths - bring your bike or hire one from the Mornington Peninsula National Park's Visitor Centre.

Drive through the rolling hills of orchards, olive groves and vineyards, past accommodation with sea views, and restaurants serving local fare. Wander through bustling markets, farm gates and roadside stalls for local produce and visit one of the 60 wineries open for tastings. Pinot noir and chardonnay are the region's specialties. Stay at Brooklands of Mornington or Mornington on Tanti.
