Point Ormond Lookout - Elwood (VIC)

Melvin Romain Lovely little Park in the middle of St Kilda. Very nice to spend some good time with friends around nature

James Hutchison This park is fantastic! Its very well maintained with clean facilities and beautifully kept grounds. There are loads of open spaces, perfect for picnics, relaxing, or tossing a frisbee around. I really appreciated the accessible restrooms, which were clean and easy to find. Its also super dog friendly—saw lots of happy pups enjoying the space. One of the highlights for me was the abundance of walking tracks, offering plenty of options whether youre out for a casual stroll or a longer walk. Great spot for all ages!

Jody Mahmoud A small and cute village model, with tiny cottages surronded by greenery. Small details that give the cottages a realistic look. Love it.

Raquel Robinson Went to Moomba here, one day spent on the Birrarang Marr side, the next day spent over at the Alexander Park side of the water. It was really hot the days I went so was hiding in the shade which theres a lot of, water is nice, watching the jet ski show, parked at Melbourne park $7.50 for the day if no event at their venue. Recommend prebooking parking as its a lot cheaper

Manini Dhar It is a lovely place to visit if you are located close to the city, particularly on a sunny day. The sunset views are to die for, and one can also see a beautiful view of the city skyline. The pier has been recently renovated and is now open from the morning till 5 PM. There are ample places to sit, few cafes nearby to enjoy a cup of hot coffee and has nice walking tracks too. Summers are quite crowded. The best part about this pier is one can see little penguins near the rocks by the pier, particularly during sunset. It is advisable to keep silence near the rocks so as to not disturb the penguins while clicking their photos.

Jawad Arain Its a mini falls near CBD, excellent recreation area. It is also the point where Merri Creek meets the Yarra River, great atmosphere and picnic point. Plenty of walks from this point.

L Dilley A lovely park (no bikes allowed) with a tennis court, lawn bowling facility and playground. Plenty of places to sit in the shade or sun. If you visit in the evening you will be sure to find some cheeky possums. Dog friendly!

Quynh Nguyen Queen Victoria Market is a must-visit spot in Melbourne, especially if you love food, culture, and local vibes. The market is full of energy, with a huge variety of fresh produce, meats, seafood, cheeses, and deli items. There are also food stalls offering delicious street food, coffee, and baked goods – perfect for breakfast or lunch. Apart from the food, you’ll find clothes, souvenirs, handmade crafts, and more. It’s a great place to explore, even if you’re just browsing. The atmosphere is lively, friendly, and full of character, and it gives you a real taste of Melbourne’s local life. It can get busy, especially on weekends, but that’s part of the fun. Everything feels authentic, and the vendors are usually helpful and passionate about their products. Don’t forget to check out the night markets if they’re on – live music, food trucks, and a great vibe. Highly recommended for both locals and tourists!
