Great place to walk the family around a lovely lake. Gets a bit windy at times but generally worth being out and about on a nice day. See ducks, geese and swans whilst walking the dog.

F1 - Australian Grand Prix

Long before you arrive, the distant sound of engines screaming will entice you into this iconic Australian event. Be prepared for lots of noise, action, and Australian’s being, well, Australian! This weekend in March brings all of the excitement you would expect when you mix Aussies, fast cars, and abundantly flowing beer. Opt for a luxury VIP experience, or hit the grandstands for a truly authentic experience. While you are there, take the energy of the day into the night and hit up one of the after-parties to enjoy the unique flavor that Melbourne has to offer.

The Australian Grand Prix is usually held in March, making it the first Grand Prix of the season. This year, it will probably be held in November 2021. As last year's Grand Prix was cancelled, let's hope that the corona virus situation is under control by November. It's understood that the teams are seeking clarification of scheduling.

The setting is beautiful, surrounded by Victorian era mansions. Within the park there are tall trees, flower gardens, and people enjoying the lawns, the sunshine, and being outside. The #1 tram goes right through this Park.

Visitors will often see boats sailing and people canoeing and kayaking. Fishing is also popular, as is bird-watching. Inteernational viewers will see the Albert Park Lake as the backdrop to the F1 Australian Grand Prix. The street track does a circuit of the lake.

Melbourne Sports Centres - MSAC

Reviewed By judithbI1841XR - St Leonards, Australia

It had waterslide, diving pool, wave pool, outdoor pool, big pool, good cafe, nice staff. I found it a little slippery underfoot and had to walk very carefully in parts. The people of south melbourne and Albert Park are spoilt with this facility.

South Melbourne Beach

Reviewed By nicdu1 - Melbourne, Australia

A wonderful spot to relax by the bay. This beach is tidy and calm, providing all beach goers with the perfect beach day out.
