Overview

Port Fairy sits on the Princes Highway at the mouth of the Moyne River, 28 km west of Warrnambool and 290 km from Melbourne. The town’s former railway, closed in 1977, is now the popular Port Fairy‑to‑Warrnambool Rail Trail, linking cyclists and walkers to the coastal landscape. With a 2016 census population of 3,340, the community enjoys a blend of tourism‑driven vitality and a strong fishing heritage, anchored by one of Victoria’s largest commercial fleets and a Sun Pharma manufacturing site on its outskirts.
