What we love about Mornington Peninsula

Local’s favourite, the Mornington Peninsula is a gorgeous coastal winery region just an hour from Melbourne. If you only have one day for regional Victoria, this is probably where you should spend it.

Mornington Peninsula is a sample of everything Australia does well, with great food and wine, gorgeous beaches, rainforest trails, native wildlife and plenty of good old fashioned hospitality.

There are a hundred different ways to spend a day or two on the Peninsula and something for the whole family. Spend the morning hand feeding kangaroos and wallabies or walking along a coastal track at Cape Schanck. Visit a few cellar doors to chat with wine-makers and try a few back vintages. Dine at one of the country’s best regional restaurants or grab something quick and tasty at a local’s favourite bakery. Visit a great indigenous gallery, local dairy or distiller…

You can even choose to stay the night and do it all again tomorrow. Set off for another of Victoria’s unmissable regions like The Great Ocean Road or Wilsons Promontory from Mornington on one of our tailored, Multi-Day or Self-Drive adventures.
