Renowned for its sense of style and elegance, Melbourne boasts glamorous festivals, a passion for eating and drinking, and a flourishing interest in the arts. Outside Melbourne, you'll find a host of regional attractions, from Phillip Island with its famous Little Penguins to the spectacular Great Ocean Road.

Hugging the contours of Victoria's southwest coast, the Great Ocean Road is one of Australia's greatest and most inspiring coastal drives.

Visit the Phillip Island Nature Park and see the famous Little Penguins as they waddle ashore to their burrows at sunset.

Trawl the wineries and vineyard restaurants of the Yarra Valley, where you can marry mouth-watering local food with fine homegrown wines.

Enjoy beautiful beaches, wineries and restaurants overlooking the bay, championship golf-courses, antique stores and markets.

Indulge yourself; relax with a massage at a local spa, sample the mineral waters, explore antique shops and galleries, or go boating on the lake.
