Prepare for a coastal-chic adventure at the Point Nepean Portsea Market, just a stone's throw from the water's edge. Nestled within the picturesque Point Nepean National Park on Ochiltree Rd, Portsea, this market is a blend of history, nature, and coastal charm that's coastal chic at its best.
Market Amidst Tea Trees: As you meander through the market under the tea trees, you'll find yourself surrounded by the natural beauty of the National Park, near the historic Quarantine Station. The market layout cleverly utilizes the surroundings, featuring grass lawns, meandering roadways, and pavilions that add to the charm of this coastal haven.
Access and Terrain: During market hours, roadways transform into 'walkways,' free from traffic access. The surfaces are a mix of gravel, bitumen, and grass, with undulating terrain in places. While the views are spectacular, shade is limited, so it's advisable to come prepared.
Caution and Consideration: Given the dynamic ground conditions and ever-changing weather, we encourage caution as you explore the market area. Watch your step, especially if you're navigating with prams or wheelchairs, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.
Furry Friends and Parking: Please note that dogs are not allowed in the National Park, with fines applicable by Parks Victoria. However, service dogs with proper identification are exempt. When it comes to parking, the Jarman Oval is your go-to spot, supervised by CMA and assisted by the Mornington Football Club and the Mornington Netball Club.
As you plan your visit, immerse yourself in the coastal charm of the Point Nepean Portsea Market. Be ready for a day of discovery, surrounded by nature, history, and the vibrant energy of this unique coastal market.
