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.

Historic charm is evident in the 50 National‑Trust‑protected buildings that line the streets, offering a mix of heritage homes and newer residences. Families benefit from two primary schools, while outdoor enthusiasts take advantage of an 18‑hole links golf course, surf spots such as Old Passage and the Lighthouse, and a lively events calendar that includes the internationally‑renowned Port Fairy Folk Festival and seasonal music and cultural celebrations.
