Mornington Peninsula highlights

Alright, let’s break down the gem that is the Mornington Peninsula! Just a hop, skip, and jump from Melbourne, this stunning spot is a must-visit for anyone craving sun, sea, and a bit of adventure. Picture this: a mix of sandy beaches and rugged coastlines, plus loads of cozy wineries (seriously, there are about 60 of ‘em) where you can sip top-notch pinot noir while soaking in beautiful views!

Whether you’re into chilling on a beach or getting your heart racing with some water sports (hello, surfing and diving!), this place has got you. And don’t miss out on the local markets for fresh produce – who doesn’t love cheese and jam?

In summer, the population swells from around 160,000 locals to about 250,000 vacationers reveling in the sunshine! With lots of spots for camping, renting a beach house, or staying in quirky motels, there’s something for every budget.
