About Mornington
Mornington is the charming heart of the Mornington Peninsula, a coastal town of 25,800 just 47 kilometres south of Melbourne's CBD. While lacking direct rail, the suburb offers lifestyle that compensates—bay beaches, a vibrant main street, and genuine seaside character. Mornington serves as the gateway to Peninsula wine country and some of Victoria's most beautiful coastal scenery.
Main Street Mornington offers boutique shopping, quality cafes, and restaurants that would be at home in any capital city. The Wednesday street market is an institution, while the beach and pier provide traditional seaside recreation. Mornington attracts sea-changers, retirees, and families who prioritise lifestyle over commute convenience, accepting the drive to Melbourne in exchange for genuine coastal living with all the amenities.
Mornington falls under postcode 3931 and is governed by Mornington Peninsula Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Mornington (Eastern Victoria) electorate.
