Docklands Travel Guide

Tourist Guide
Docklands
A gorgeous harbour with waterfront dining and jaw-dropping city skyline views… this might sound more like another popular Australian city, but surprise – it’s Melbourne!

Investigate a little further into this exciting urban renewal project on the banks of the Yarra River and Victoria Harbour. You’ll find broad promenades lined with humming restaurants and bars, as well as some of Melbourne’s top destinations for entertainment. Clink glasses over a view of the city from your perch on an observation deck or join the action at one of Docklands’ high-profile sports arenas.
