Sat, May 9, 10:30 PM
From Wild Side Melbourne Day Tours

Explore the Great Ocean Road in a small group of 10. Enjoy ethical wildlife, Chocolatery, the Twelve Apostles and Wildlife Park with snacks, a free drink, instant photo and carbon-offset tree planting This Great Ocean Road day tour is designed for travelers who want more than a standard sightseeing loop. With a maximum of 10 guests, the experience focuses on storytelling, ethical wildlife encounters, honest pricing, and responsible travel. By booking this tour, you support protected wildlife and nature through our tree-planting carbon offset program. Everything listed is included in the price — no hidden fees, no upgrades, and no pressure to spend more during the day. Instead of rushing between stops, the itinerary is carefully paced to allow time to explore, listen, and connect with the landscape. A journey with meaning Leaving Melbourne, the day begins with a relaxed stop at a local chocolaterie, giving everyone time to settle in and get to know the group. From there, the journey follows the iconic Great Ocean Road, where every stop is tied together with stories rather than scripts. At the Memorial Arch, learn why this road is considered the world’s largest war memorial, built by returned soldiers and shaped by resilience and history. Iconic coast, unhurried Feel the scale of the Southern Ocean as you descend the Gibson Steps to sea level. Spend quality time at the Twelve Apostles, with space to explore, photograph, and absorb the scenery without feeling rushed. Continue to Loch Ard Gorge, where dramatic cliffs frame one of the Great Ocean Road’s most powerful shipwreck stories. Designed routes, not repetition The tour travels along the coast on the way out and returns via an inland route, offering different landscapes and a more engaging journey rather than repeating the same road twice. Honest, all-inclusive experience There are no extra charges during the tour. Complimentary snacks, a free drink, and a printed Instax instant photo are included as personal touches. Lunch and dinner are not included by design, allowing flexibility for different dietary needs, preferences, and beliefs.

Play 3-Sided Soccer at Albert Park - mixed - social - all levels - all fitness

Sat, May 9, 11:00 PM
From Melbourne 3-Sided Soccer - Mixed play, all levels, Sundays
4.9

3 Teams. 3 Goals. Hexagonal Pitch. A game of alliance and betrayal in equal measure. We are looking for new players and returning players alike to come play a match. Players of any ability, fitness level or background are welcomed - the game is intended to be fun for a Sunday morning rather than super competitive. If you've never played before, that's okay - the rules are as simple as this: * There's no offside - roam where you will * Defend your goal at all costs * No hands (this is soccer-style football after all) Come down for 9:00am, we make some balanced teams and warm up for the match starting at 9:15. Three thirds are played of 25 minutes each so we're usually done by about 11:00am. All fitness and soccer skill levels more than welcome and encouraged! A note regarding junior players: We very much enjoy and encourage junior players to come along and play however please be aware of the following: * As most attendees are adults, all players must be a minimum of 1.5m tall and 13 years of age. Soccer may have incidental contact when contesting a ball, and we would hate for someone small to be injured as a result of running into someone larger than them. * Any players under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a playing parent or guardian. How to find us - We meet on the astroturf pitch near the Baselball and Hockey clubs in Albert Park. The main location we use is called "Dorothy Coleman Field". If we aren't there then there may be a couple of other locations, [as noted on this dynamic map](https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1JdDwV4AOV5e-xP5d56m16-eu29GlnZQ&usp=sharing) \- generally we will follow in number order\.
