[2025 Geelong Attraction] Travel Guide for Geelong (Updated Oct)

Geelong Geelong, is the second largest city in Victoria, between Melbourne and the Great Ocean Road! Because I had never heard of smelling this place, I was not particularly looking forward to what I would see! But when you see the sea view, harbor, pier, carousel with the sun's rays, it's like looking at a painting, the mood suddenly cheerful! Pick up your phone at will, press to take a picture, it's already a beautiful photo! #Australia #Australiatravel

#celebratewithtrip Geelong, The Waterfront esplanade has a 19th-century carousel, plus a curved art deco boardwalk and sea bath at Eastern Beach. Scattered along The Waterfront are the Baywalk Bollards, colourful sculptures chronicling city history. A city next to GOR, you could actually travel between Geelong Docklands via Port Philip Ferries, the price is affordable! Definitely worth it. Had a relax walk in Geelong waterfront, unfortunately the day we went was shower, we could still feel the cold temperature during this Spring. Looking forward for Port Philip Ferries next trip! #tripblazers #geelong #melbourne #relax #waterfront #spooktaculartrip #fallingforfall #awesomepic #portphilipferries #docklands #spring

I have been to Geelong for the White Night event. I found that the view is really good, especially the ocean view. The weather is colder if compared with city.

I have been to Geelong for the White Night event. It is not crowned if compare with CBD. White Night is back and returning to Geelong to light up your night with vibrant visual art, music, light projections and family fun.

Arrive in Melbourne, pick up the car at the airport and head straight to Geelong, which is the first stop on our Great Ocean Road. Geelong is the second largest city in Victoria after Melbourne. It is the entrance to the Great Ocean Road. There are beautiful beaches. The biggest feature is the lovely human-shaped bollard on the shore. Today's weather is superb, the blue sky and the blue sea are in a line. This is just the round-the-island cycling race. The roads along the coast are surrounded, and there are various entertainment activities on the side. A lot of prizes.

🏞【Destination Guide】 Geelong is located 76 kilometers southwest of Melbourne and is the entrance to the famous Great Ocean Road. It is also the largest wool distribution center and wool textile industry in the country, and a gathering place for meat processing industry. The top-quality wool produced in Geelong is popular both locally and abroad. At the same time, the beautiful coastline and artistic painted dolls attract a large number of tourists. 🌟Highlights: The first stop in Geelong must be the "Australian National Wool Museum". It is located in the center of Geelong. The museum details the history of Australian wool spinning and the impact of the wool spinning industry on the entire national economy. There are many exhibits in the museum, some of which even allow you to touch them by hand to feel the quality difference of different types of wool. In addition, there are souvenirs for sale on the first floor of the museum. Next, how can you miss the famous "Geelong Waterfront" when you come to Geelong? Take a walk, picnic, swim, surf, ride a bicycle, or take a yacht to the sea. Along the way, you can also see 100 colorful dolls scattered in the waterfront area, with rich shapes, bright colors, and unique features. This is a major feature of Geelong and should not be missed! The picturesque seaside city, the uniquely shaped painted dolls, the unique local food (it is recommended to stay more in the center of Geelong, there are many local western restaurants on the beach street, very delicious can taste), and the romantic Ferris wheel on the beach. Geelong is definitely your perfect holiday choice. Detailed address: Geelong VIC 3220 on the Great Ocean Road Traffic strategy: It is recommended to drive by yourself, at the entrance of the Great Ocean Road, 1 hour drive from Melbourne. Small Tips: Museum souvenirs will be more expensive, you can compare three, rational consumption.

🌳 Geelong is the largest rural town in Victoria, about 70 kilometers from Melbourne, about 1 hour away. A quiet seaside town, perfect for chilling on the lawns and enjoying the view, taking a drive, or stopping by a restaurant or bar for a glass of wine. #dreamdestination

From Melbourne Cross Station, take a bus to Geelong. The scenery along the way is nice. After arriving at the station, walk about 10 minutes to reach the beach with installation art. It was quite cold that day. There were indeed many athletes participating in the swimming competition. I admired their courage. There was also a Ferris wheel and luxury residential area nearby. The seabirds were not afraid of the crowd when foraging. #Good place for families

Come to Melbourne always want to go to geelong play, this time with a friend to rent a car to geelong fishing, the captain will introduce the itinerary in detail, and prepare all the tools, very seriously teach you how to fish, novice I quickly get started, even if you really do not know how to fish, he will see the fish have fishing ask you to try to pull up😂 #Australia #Geelong #fishing #melbourne #geelong

The Geelong Waterfront is a tourist and recreation area on the north facing shores of Corio Bay in Geelong, Australia. The area was once part of the Port of Geelong, falling into disuse before being redeveloped during the 1990s. The public pool entrance is free and a great place to cool down in the summer months. At any time, it’s lovely to pack a picnic basket and simply enjoy the beautiful Geelong waterfront and enjoy the sunset. Attractions: The Baywalk Bollards were created by local artist Jan Mitchell in the mid-1990s, with the timber painted sculptures reflecting local history and identities. Over 100 in number, they are installed right around the waterfront between Rippleside and Limeburners Point. Deakin University's Waterfront Campus and Costa Hall are located on the western side of the precinct. The campus accommodates around 1500 on-campus students studying programs in Architecture, Construction Management, Nursing and Occupational Therapy. Yarra Street Pier is located at the end of Yarra Street and features a number of restaurants, as well as being the departure point for helicopter joyflights. The Geelong Flyer operated by Port Phillip Ferries has daily public ferry departures from Geelong (Steampacket Pier) to Docklands in Melbourne. Cunningham Pier offers 'The Pier' a social venue. Steampacket Quay is located at the end of Moorabool Street and provided as sheltered location for ferries, seaplanes and other watercraft. The Carousel Pavilion houses a c.1892 Armitage-Herschell steam-driven carousel, c.1888 steam engine and a part-original, part replica 1898 Gavioli Band organ in a modern glass and steel building. The carousel has been restored and consists of 36 horses and 2 chariots. The historic carousel still comprises 24 original horses and the rest were built again. It was originally built in New York and was then shipped to Australia in 1920s. The Royal Geelong Yacht Club was established in 1859, and is located on the shores of the bay. The adjacent Bay City Marina was constructed in the 1980s. Eastern Beach is a popular swimming and recreation area close to the centre of Geelong. When visiting Melbourne, it’s definitely worth a day trip to Geelong which is only about an hour’s drive from CBD Melbourne or simply jump on the train which takes just a little over an hour from Southern Cross station.

#Foreign sensibility If you stay in Melbourne for a while, I recommend taking the train to Geelong, which is an hour away👍🏻 It's a small and quiet seaside town, but it's so pretty that you'll feel like you're in a fairy tale. My recommended route is 👏🏻 Eat fish and chips with an ocean view on the beach, walk around, ride the Ferris wheel (it's quite high and spins for a long timeㅎㅎ) watch the carousel take a walk in a place like Teletubby Park (you can use the free swimming pool if the weather is nice) eat ice cream drink a beer while staring at the water and so on. (There are also quite a few Korean restaurantsㅋㅋㅋ) #Hot place #Vacation trip #Sea trip #Australia #Melbourne

We had some issues with the wifi not working, so we couldn’t connect to the KODI remote, and the fire alarm went off a couple of times, however, there has been massive floods throughout Victoria & Geelong, so it’s affected everything including power, internet, etc! So it’s definitely not the hotels fault! We enjoyed our stay, and it was nice to have just some us time, and apart from the floods causing issues, it was a nice hotel to stay in and we really enjoyed it! The king bed was massive and comfortable.

amazing Geelong vacation booked through Trip.com, amazing stay! amazing staff

In addition to the pier views in Geelong, there are many restaurants near the pier where you can eat with a view of the sea. And the quality of the food in the restaurant is excellent. Just like this mussels and seafood platter, it tastes and looks very good. #OverseasTravel #OverseasTravel

Geelong in Australia is located near the sea, but also extends far into the country side, so rural life is close at hand. The weather is lovely in the Spring and Fall so exploring the outdoors is easy to do. Great easy outing. #wintergetaway #wintergetaway

When you open the first stop of the Great Ocean Road, you will often choose to go to Geelong with a variety of painted puppets. It is said that there are tourists who specialize in playing cards and pledge to shoot all the puppets. Although it is the second largest city in Victoria, but in our eyes, it is a leisurely town. In the evening, take a walk along the coast and watch the locals bring children and dogs to the park after work, and girls. They are doing yoga against the sea breeze, and the local government has even set up a calm sea surface to make a public saltwater pool... This indescribable tranquility and leisurelyness really makes people feel like they want to live for a long time. However, it is estimated that I can only think about it...
