Welcome to Fish Creek

Nestled amongst the rolling green hills of South Gippsland, Fish Creek is a charming rural village with a distinctly artistic soul. Just a short drive from Wilsons Promontory National Park and the spectacular beaches of the South Gippsland coast, Fish Creek offers a wonderful combination of country tranquillity, creativity and natural beauty. The village is known for its colourful character, galleries, boutique stores, cafés and welcoming country atmosphere, making it much more than simply a gateway to the Prom.

Fish Creek is a place to slow down and enjoy the best of country Victoria. Wander through the village and discover local artists, galleries, handmade crafts, interesting shops and excellent cafés, or enjoy a meal featuring the region's wonderful local produce. The Great Southern Rail Trail runs directly through the town, offering a beautiful way to explore the surrounding countryside on foot or by bicycle. For spectacular views, the nearby Mount Nicoll lookout looks across the green hills towards Corner Inlet and the mountains of Wilsons Promontory. And for those wanting to explore further, some of Victoria's most beautiful natural attractions are close by, including Wilsons Promontory, Waratah Bay, Sandy Point and the surrounding coastline. Fish Creek has a relaxed, creative and distinctly country character that makes it an ideal base for discovering South Gippsland.
