OUR CULINARY PINOT COAST

The Pinot Coast is a stunning coastal culinary destination, with independent producers, winemakers and restauranteurs across more than 50 villages.

With more Chef’s Hats than any other regional area in Victoria and only a short drive from Melbourne, our specialties include seafood, berries, truffles, cheese and, of course, its world-class Pinot Noir along with other delicious varietals.

OUR CULINARY MORNINGTON PENINSULA

With seven Chef’s Hat-awarded restaurants, local cafes and farmgates, the Mornington Peninsula is a gourmet traveller’s paradise.

You can also savour a range of local fresh, farmgate produce, even foraging for mushrooms, picking your own strawberries or crunching into just-picked apples, as well as enjoying craft beverages at our breweries and distilleries.

OUR CULINARY GEELONG

From award-winning dining to our Bellarine and Moorabool Valley Taste Trails, the Geelong region is a culinary treasure trove.

As Victoria’s second city and with our coastal location, we are home to exceptional waterfront restaurants and cafes. Our inland regions produce delicacies such as chocolate, olives, cheese and berries as well as whisky, gin, cider and locally-brewed beer, while Portarlington is the Blue Mussel capital of Australia.
