Visit Melbourne - Docklands lyrics

Choose your own Docklands adventure and experience the beauty of Melbourne by the water, just five minutes from the CBD. Sample cutting-edge Australian and international cuisine, take in stunning city views, or bring the family for a fun-filled day around the harbour. Waterfront City Catch a flight on the Melbourne Star observation wheel and take in spellbinding 360-degree views of Melbourne city, Port Phillip Bay and the Dandenong Ranges. Shop up a storm in Waterfront City's designer stores and discount outlets or round up the kids for a lively afternoon by the marina. Try your sk**s on the rink at Medibank Icehouse, bump around in dodgem cars or explore the Walk of Stars – Melbourne's own walk of fame. For designer threads, j**ellery and children's fashion, take a stroll to the Harbour Town Shopping Centre. Wander leisurely through this open-air shopping precinct, combining discounted brands along with the latest fashion, designer and specialty stores. NewQuay Leave behind the everyday and spend a while amid the inspiring public artworks, renowned dining spots, bars, luxury apartments and galleries of NewQuay. Find exceptional middle-eastern cuisine at the cutting-edge Moroccan eating house Mecca Bah or pick up fresh Mediterranean seafood at Livebait. Indulge in Indian, Cambodian or Japanese, or cool off with a gelato and saunter along the jetty as the sun sets. Meet friends after work and slow down over a bottle of wine while the boats bob about on the water or get in the mood for a big game at Etihad Stadium with a few beers at stylish Berth. Prefer to keep moving? Down a few co*ktails then explore the public art walking tour that takes you all around the Docklands.
