Overview

Experience the incredible culinary delights of the Mornington Peninsula on this sublime food, wine and beer trail along the spectacular coastline. Experience the region’s best attractions the way locals do as we visit some of the most popular spots and indulge in the finest produce of Australia’s south-eastern coast.

From estate vineyards to breweries on the beaches and bathing boxes, the journey offers a myriad of tastings and activities designed to delight you!

Pt. Leo Estate

A sensational delight for lovers of all things beautiful, this estate is home to rolling vineyards, the renowned Sculpture Park dotted with some magnificent installations by both Australian as well as international artists, and sweeping views of the ocean. Their contemporary cellar door with minimalistic decor makes for an equally immersive ambiance to enjoy their tasting.

Rare Hare at Jackalope

Complimented by views of rolling vineyards and a range of elegant single-vineyard wines, Rare Hare is a must-visit for anyone who are fans of cool-climate chardonnay and pinot noirs.  

Mont Alto Winery

The estate is also renowned for its welcoming ambience, relaxed Australian architecture, intimate cellar door, and the beauty of its grounds that include an olive grove, sculpture walk and wetlands. Their outdoor pizzeria, sitting in the laps of the rolling hills of Red Hill, is a cherished spot for lunch with locals. 

St Andrews Beach Brewery

This craft brewery with a refreshing outdoor beer garden is quite the local favourite. A staunch believer of everything ‘simple and uncomplicated’, they are known for some truly fresh and clean Aussie brews. Joining the locals, we’ll sample one of their tasting paddles while witnessing the simplicity of life on a farm.

Peninsula Bathing Boxes

Throwing it right back with some vintage vibes, we’ll take a walk along the Port Phillip Bay, dotted with vivaciously coloured bathing boxes. Synonymous with summers, these iconic boxes are a treat to watch against the backdrop of the turquoise waters, besides being a winning background for Instagram-worthy shots!

About the Supplier: Dedicated to showcasing the warmth of the local providores and experiences as well as the natural Aussie beauty, the team at Explore Australia have created experiences that are more intimate while tapping into what a local may do and to bring a ‘moment of stillness’, whether on a beach, atop a cliff, or on the water. They are known for offering some brilliant day tours from Melbourne that are well crafted and deliver that ‘local feel’ with joy, a sense of fun and absolute quality.
