The Cleveland Bayside Markets bring the town centre alive as local artists and craftspeople sell their wares. By the sea shore, the bayside suburbs of Victoria Point and Wellington Point boast wonderful views of the water, and are the perfect place for a relaxing picnic.
The region has several national parks, including Venman’s Bushland National Park in Mount Cotton. There is a variety of walking tracks through bushland, which comes alive with wildlife at dawn and dusk. Barbecue and picnic facilities are available, as well as fresh water and toilets. Nature lovers should also be sure to visit the Eprapah Environmental Centre at Victoria Point.
Along with its natural beauty, the high mountain region of Mount Cotton offers many diverse attractions for visitors to enjoy, including an award winning winery, a rainforest garden and a unique commercial herb garden and cafe.
