The Neighborhood:
In the centre of this thriving eclectic centre of cafes, restaurants, beach and park. Just 6km from the city centre, St Kilda is Melbourne’s seaside playground and is much-loved by residents and visitors. Known as Melbourne’s beachside playground, St Kilda has long been a go-to destination for those in search of great food and drink. Many of St Kilda’s eateries are located along Fitzroy St and Acland St, with a mix of moody wine bars, summery outdoor terraces, and fine dining restaurants, all located around Port Phillip Bay. It is renowned for its expansive view of Port Phillip, safe sandy beach, palm-lined boardwalk, and huge range of beach activities. Home to many of Melbourne’s famous visitor attractions, Luna Park, the Esplanade Hotel, Catani Gardens, Acland Street, and Fitzroy Street, nothing quite compares to St Kilda beach itself.
