A great kids playground only 200m from our home. Lots of shade, a basketball court, BBQ facilities, and even a table tennis table!

Venus Bay Pharmacy
131 Jupiter BlvdFor coffee, food staples, drinks, ice, and firewood.
A 20 minute drive from Venus Bay. Walkerville South is an absolutely stunning beach and is a family favourite for us. It is very calm (think of a gentle cove) that has caves and rock pools to explore (our 3 y/o daughter loves this magical place and so do we!). Parking can be tricky to find (or 1 person drops the family off at the beach, parks the car in the carpark up the top, and then walks 3 minutes to the beach).

Food scene
Amazing seafood, woodfired pizzas, great vibes, and welcoming to visitors and locals. There is regular live music on weekends too. If you're lucky you might be there for their paella night so ask at the bar :-)
