Frankston Waterfront Festival

Looking for something different to do this summer? How about heading out of the city to Frankston’s annual Waterfront Festival?! Just over an hour out of the city on the Eastlink trail, or approximately one hour on the train from Flinders Street Station, Frankston has never been so easy to get to and the locals are revelling in their new found connectivity.

This January 16^th and 17^th the Frankston Waterfront Festival sees Frankston come alive with a mixture of live music, good food and water sport activities for the whole family. How about setting sail to the seas, paddle boarding out in the waves, canoeing in the still waters or even snorkelling and seeing underwater worlds! For those who prefer to stay on land, there will be beach soccer and beach hockey running during the day, otherwise have a stroll around the many stalls showcasing local handmade goods.

While there, make time to visit Frankston’s annual Sand Sculpting Exhibition. Featuring awe inspiring artwork and situated just around the corner from all the fun, rides and festivities it is too good an experience to miss.
