Parks & Nature

A more wild beach than your typical Port Phillip beach, it even occasionally has surf. Nice for a bracing walk in the cooler months or a refreshing swim when it's hot.

Food Scene

I have recommended mostly wineries with restaurants as this seems to be what many people are looking for on a trip to the Mornington Peninsula and we are spoilt for choice in this regard. I am sure there are many more great ones I just haven't had a chance to visit them all yet! There are also lots of places to eat in the nearby Mornington, Mt Martha, Balnarring and Red Hill. I have recommended a few pizza joints as that is what our two year old loves best so I am across the local pizza options!
Restaurant has a focus on locally sourced seasonal produce with a great view over vineyards and landscape. Nice casual spots to sit outside, when the weather is fine they also do picnic hampers if you would rather sit somewhere quiet under a tree.

The more relaxed restaurant at Jackapole- open for dinner Friday and Saturday and every day for lunch. There's also a cellar door if you are just after a wine tasting or alternatively if you are feeling like a fancy 5 Course Tasting Menu with paired wines or cocktails Doot Doot Doot restaurant is another option right next door. Would recommend booking first.
