Melbourne Activities
Green Melbourne
Make the most of the city's rivers, parks, coastline and bay. Pack a picnic lunch for a day wandering around the lush surrounds of the botanic gardens, take in city views on a bike ride along the Yarra River, or take a hot air balloon ride over the city at dawn.
Choose your own adventure
Whether it's golf or boating, tennis or Tai Chi, Melbourne has plenty of things to see and do outdoors to suit your interests and lifestyle. Stroll along the boardwalk in St Kilda or go for a dip at one of the many Melbourne beaches. Cruise down the Yarra on a boat tour or catch the ferry across to Williamstown for a day of fishing.
Fun parks inside and out
Turn yourself upside down and inside out at Melbourne's fun parks, like the much-loved Luna Park or Wonderland Fun Park at Docklands, where the little ones can experience the thrills of a mini rollercoaster.

Winter year-round or beachside frolics
Call your mates for some inpromptu go-kart racing close to the city centre, or celebrate winter year-round by skiing and snowboarding without the queues and unpredictable weather at SkiCity.

If the great outdoors are calling, head to Melbourne's parks and beaches for boating, kiteboarding, or even some old-fashioned beach cricket.
Kangaroo Island is with 1,740 square miles the third largest island off the coast of Australia. It is 96 miles long and 34 miles wide, and known for its outstanding natural beauty. Due to its remote location, Kangaroo Island was less affected than the mainland by the impact of European development. To this day, the island is rich in diverse flora and fauna seldom found elsewhere. As one of the world's last unspoiled wilderness places, about 30 percent of the island has been designated as National Parks. Its large sandy beach and dune area is home to Australian sea lions where they come to rest and nurse their young.
Kangaroo Island Activities
Take a walk to Flagstaff Hill for a panoramic view of the surrounding countryside and the Bluff.
Stroll down the coastal road to the boat ramp where you can observe abundant birdlife. Return via Cordes Road and Seaview Road to Flagstaff Hill to complete the loop.
