When summer comes around and the Peninsula is bathed in sunshine, everyone heads outdoors. A summer day would not be complete without a trip to one of our many beaches whether you’re after a crystal clear bay beach or one of our wild ocean surf beaches, the choice is yours. Marine adventures are aplenty. You could enjoy a stand up paddle boarding session along the coastline or a once in lifetime experience swimming with dolphins. You might like to enjoy a lazy afternoon imbibing a pale ale or sipping a chardonnay on a visit to one of our beautiful boutique breweries or wineries. Visitors are also spoilt-for- choice with the wide variety of live summer music concerts and festivals. Rounding out the day might include a night camping under the stars. In autumn the landscape completely changes with brilliant colours on display. The best place to see this natural beauty is on one of the many walking trails or scenic drives we have on offer. Autumn brings us some of the most awe-inspiring sunrises and sunsets. Cooler days bring many visitors out to the autumn festivals and markets around the region. In winter our classic coastal location becomes a quiet oasis. There are fewer visitors, but that means better deals and still an endless array of indoor and outdoor attractions. We love the slower pace over winter, taking the time to allow our visitors to indulge in cosy fireside dining featuring the best of local fare. Shades of red and brown are in abundance with pinots, single-malt whiskeys, rum and dark ales ready to warm you after a windswept stroll. It’s the perfect time to book a stay in one of our luxury accommodations. You may just find a boutique hotel or villa with a cosy log fire warming up your room. Enjoy a relaxing hot springs experience or pamper yourself with a spa treatment.
