Beaches of Port Fairy
Port Fairy is nestled on the edge of the Southern Ocean.
Yes you can have it all - a solo surf, a quiet beach to yourself, an amble by a rocky groyne without a care in the world. No bustle, no crowds, no distractions. Just you and the oceans serenity.
From June to October, keep your ocean eyes peeled for the mighty splash of a Southern Right Whale. Look for wallabies as wander the windswept trails of Griffiths island.

Strap on your running shoes to explore a new-to-you locale at a powerful pace. Kilometre upon kilometre of trails and tracks, meander from beach to clifftop to bush to river and beyond. Escape and blow-out the cobwebs with a run, walk or cycle.
