Must Do's

Places to visit and things to 'MUST-DO' here in the Peninsula!
Only 20minutes drive from our place, this is an absolute MUST-DO! It gets pretty busy right in the middle of the day, so we recommend visiting the hot springs either early in the morning (it opens at 7am) or after dark (they close at 10pm). It's the perfect way to relax, chill out and reset!

The track literally starts on our doorstep...well, one street away! Head up the hill on La Trobe Parade and follow up to the signposted Two Bays Walk on the left side of the road after the bridge. You'll see a gravel carpark and gravel road and the entrance to the walk. Head up here to Arthur's Seat Lookout. A beautiful 1-1.5hr round trip walk to get your heart pumping and STUNNING views. Take your phone to capture pics!

Accessible either by the Two Bays Walking Track (you can get to it from our doorstep!) or drive up to the top and take in the views. Absolutely stunning and take your time to explore seawinds gardens while you're there at the top too! A great thing to do early in the morning for sunrise or late in the evening for sunset!
