Destination Profile

Easy-going yet filled with things to do, Melbourne hits high on the liveability scale. When the sun shines, the sands of St Kilda and Elwood get filled with beer-clinking picnickers out for a day on the ocean. Urban explorations can be about flitting between the clothes shops, fish stalls and bakeries of the age-old Queen Victoria Market. There are elegant Victorian landmarks crowding the bustling CBD, and people chatting AFL and cricket in the terrace bars of Fitzroy. And when it's time to escape? Hit the Great Ocean Road for jaw-dropping coastal scenery, go for the wineries of the Bellarine Peninsula, or plot a course to the Grampians National Park for hiking amid wildflower meadows. Cheap flights to Melbourne come from all over. As a major entry point to Australia, this one's served by domestic and long-haul airlines, with oodles of direct deals on offer into town from destinations as far flung as London and LA.
