This coastal city is a playground for all things aquatic.

Explore the Shipwreck Coast and Warrnambool’s knotty volcanic shoreline. Landlubbers can enjoy the heritage buildings in the heart of town, as well as a series of lovingly tended parks and gardens. The city also fringes one of Victoria’s key dairying districts, so you can get your fill of local cheese and ice cream.
