Lovely for a sunset stroll or a spot of fishing. The pier is a real meeting point for the town.

It’s best to explore the best of the Bellarine by car.
While a car can help you explore the surrounds, Portarlington is a small town and great place to walk or cycle, nothing is very far. If you come by ferry, there are several tour companies that will get you to the wonderful wineries in the region.

The Bellarine Peninsula has some great golf courses
If you love to relax with a hit of golf, there are lots of options of quality courses all within driving distance (ha, see what I did there?) Portarlington - Curlewis - Queenscliff - 13th Beach - Point Lonsdale - make sure you pack your clubs!

Portarlington is famous for mussels!
Buy them fresh from the pier and cook up a delicious batch of ‘moules mariniere’ or book a table at The Little Mussel Cafe to find out for yourself why they’re famous.

Safe beaches for little ones
With miles of safe shallow water beaches, Portarlington beach is wonderful for families. The beautiful beaches stretch for miles with many secluded spots between Portarlington and the nearby towns of Indented Head and St Leonards
