Nature is Home in Melbourne
Geography

Located on the southeastern tip of Australia, Melbourne is known for its dynamic geography — from stunning coastal beaches, to mountain ranges, wineries and rich agricultural farmland. The beautiful, tidal Yarra River offers a sense of timeless serenity amid Melbourne’s energetic pulse.

Climate

Melbourne is the perfect location to enjoy the best of very season. Warm, sunny summers shift to cool, golden autumns, while winter brings brisk temperatures and refreshing coastal breezes. As spring approaches, vibrant blooms feature in spectacular public gardens and at nearby country escapes. No matter the time of year, Melbourne’s seasonal charm is always worth exploring.

Flora

With its temperate climate, Melbourne showcases a beautiful range of lush greenery and floral diversity, from eucalyptus trees to bright wildflowers. Melbourne’s unique flora is bold and captivating. With stunning native plants like the Wattle, Eucalyptus, and Bottlebrush, you’ll encounter eye-catching shades of golden yellow, vivid red, and silver-green as you explore the city. Add the fragrant scents of Boronia and Lemon Myrtle, and Melbourne’s greenery becomes an unforgettable feast for the senses.

Fauna

Melbourne is home to a wide variety of wildlife with unique native species such as kangaroos, wombats, koalas, kookaburras, and wallabies. The more urban spaces tend to attract possums, and colourful birdlife such as parrots, cockatoos, rosellas and fantails. Venture slightly beyond the city's  fringes and you will find some of our most iconic fauna happily engaged in their favourite pastimes.

Natural Attractions

Victoria offers an enviable array of natural beauty, from the iconic Twelve Apostles on the Great Ocean Road to the verdant Yarra Valley wineries. For adventure, explore the rugged bushland of the Grampians, the breathtaking kilometers of Mornington Peninsula beaches, or the sweeping High Plains. Closer to Melbourne, enjoy the stunning Royal Botanic Gardens, or relax on Half Moon Bay or St Kilda Beach, just a few of the city's fabulous beaches.

Sustainability

Naturally, we’ve planted roots in a city that’s considered a global leader in the realm of sustainability. Melbourne is always working to take bold climate action, shining through its recent planet-friendly commitments which include investing $40 million in water reuse and management, transitioning to renewable energy, planting over 22,000 trees since 2012, implementing waste avoidance policies to achieve zero waste to landfill by 2030, and so much more.
