Williamstown

For mellow beaches, city views, salty history and crafty brews, set sail to Williamstown, Melbourne’s very first port.

Melbourne’s heritage hub at the mouth of the Yarra River has perfectly preserved façades that house an enchanting collection of cafés, restaurants, bars and shops. Old-world charm has a modern flair in this cosy beachside ‘burb and sunny days bring beachgoers from all over the city. Dangle your feet from the pretty old pier and take in the views of Melbourne’s city skyline or experience the sights from the water on a cruise.
