Destination Overview

You will uncover history at every corner of this delightful fishing village at the end of the Great Ocean Road.   

The wide streets are lined by nineteenth century cottages, old stone churches, boarding houses, great Norfolk pines and inns. More than 50 buildings in Port Fairy are classified by the National Trust and many fine examples of the architecture of the 1800s remain intact.

  Take one of the historic walking trails and discover charming, fully restored white washed cottages built by seamen and whalers beside Georgian-style merchants' homes and grand public buildings.

  The local port is one of the busiest fishing ports in Victoria and fishermen unload their catch of abalone and crayfish at the dockside. Cruising boats and racing yachts are docked at the port and you will see anglers and trying their luck. You can head out to sea from the wharf on a guided fishing trip or take a cruise to the seal colony on Lady Julia Percy Island.

  Port Fairy also offers a range of boutique, antique, art and craft shops to peruse. There are local artists to see at work and museums to explore. The Port Fairy Folk Festival is one of Australia's largest music festivals and is held each year in March. If you are feeling lazy, why not just relax and enjoy the fine food and wine on offer at one of the many great pubs, cafes and restaurants.
