DESCRIPTION
Where Coastline Meets Countryside
Ballooning near Victoria’s second biggest city Geelong, offers a stunning blend of coastal and rural landscapes. From above, passengers can take in rolling green hills, vibrant farmland, the winding Barwon River, and the sweeping coastline of Port Phillip Bay. On clear mornings, the view stretches to the You Yangs and even across to the ocean.
Flights launch from a variety of locations depending on the wind – sometimes from within Geelong itself, or from nearby spots like Murgheboluc, Bannockburn, or across the Bellarine Peninsula. Every launch point offers a different yet equally breathtaking perspective of the region.
Balloon flights in this area operate year-round, weather permitting, although the high season with greatest flight availability is November through to March. It’s a chance to discover one of Victoria’s most diverse and picturesque regions in a way few others have.
If you are self-driving to Geelong – allow just over an hour from Melbourne…leading into a breathtaking morning adventure. Perfect for a day trip or a relaxing overnight stay in the Geelong Bellarine region.
