The Mornington Peninsula has a wide choice if you are a market lover. Boneo is the best one (in my opinion) and is very local to us. Held on the third Saturday of every month. Stalls include local produce, fruit & veg, clothing, crafts, plants and more. Lots of options to eat and drink whilst there too. Make a day of it!
