Rosebud
Port Phillip Bay defines the setting of Rosebud — its sheltered southern shore gives this Mornington Peninsula town a low-rise coastal character. Rosebud stretches between the bay’s foreshore and the rolling inland country of the peninsula, with residential streets, shops and community facilities forming its everyday centre. The town lies on Bunurong Country, part of the traditional lands of the Bunurong people of the Kulin Nation. Rosebud Pier, first built in 1884, remains a waterfront landmark and recalls the era when piers connected peninsula settlements with Melbourne by steamer. Further inland, farms, vineyards and coastal heath help distinguish this part of Victoria from metropolitan Melbourne.

Among Australia’s regions, Victoria stands out for the remarkable variety packed between the Murray River and Bass Strait. The state combines fertile northern plains, the Central Victorian Goldfields, the forested Great Dividing Range and a long southern coast. Bendigo and Ballarat grew rapidly during the gold rushes of the 1850s, while Melbourne developed into Victoria’s cultural and economic centre. Along the southwest, the Great Ocean Road follows a dramatic stretch of coastline, contrasting with the farmland and river country inland.
