You have no right to be bored in Melbourne. There is always a new event or attraction to see. Make the most of your visit and see these Melbourne things to do. Whether it’s your first time in the city or your thousandth, whether you’re there with your partner, friends or your family, you are going to find something exciting to discover. 

Aquarium

Got any budding marine biologists in the family? Or are your kids just tired of being dragged from shop to shop? Give them a reason to brag to their friends when they get back from their trip. Take them to Melbourne Aquarium.

Melbourne Aquarium 1

Teach your children the importance of preserving Australia’s precious marine life at Conservation Cove or introduce them to Pinjarra, one of Australia’s largest saltwater crocodiles in Croc Lair. You can even do shark dives in Mermaid Garden to get up close and personal with the grey nurse shark, one of the gentle giants of the sea.

The Aquarium is one of Australia’s favourite Melbourne things to do.

Museums

Whether you’re into science, history or culture, there’s a museum for you in Melbourne. Kids will love Scienceworks, an interactive museum that encourages them to get hands-on with the sciences. There’s a planetarium that will introduce them to the wonders of the universe, or show them that maths and chemistry aren’t boring at the many events and exhibitions.

Explore Australia’s proud multicultural history at the Immigration Museum or take a spooky night tour of the Old Melbourne Gaol. Just watch out for ghosts. Sports fans already know to visit the MCG. While there, they should see the National Sports Museum and Melbourne Museum to relive Australia’s proud history of Cricket, Football, Rugby, Horse Racing and countless other sports.

St. Kilda

Visit one of Melbourne’s favourite suburbs. With Cafes, bars and restaurants lining the streets, a glorious beach and a few hidden shops, you will find something worth seeing in St. Kilda.
