Local Area Notes

A seaside resort for Melbournians in Queen Victoria's era, later a notorious red-light district, St Kilda is home to many of Melbourne's rising creative stars and professionals.

Drawn by the many funky bars, outstanding restaurants and eclectic shops, this well-heeled crowd has brought an influx of spending power that's transformed a once neglected seaside suburb into Victoria's unchallenged ‘Capital of Cool'.

The world-famous patisseries, the landmark Edelweiss Delicatessen and the popular Sunday art-and-craft market on the Esplanade are all still here and still thronged with customers.

But many hip newcomers have added to the vibrant cosmopolitan mix - sophisticated drinking spots, cozy and enticing restaurants, haute couture and New Age fashion outlets, Internet cafes, live music venues, the new Farmer's Market - and much more.

St Kilda offers an endlessly fascinating pot-pouri of modern pop and café culture, enhanced for people-watchers by a constant stream of sometimes eccentric, always colorful characters and Beautiful People from all over the globe.

There are so many interesting things in St Kilda, the Esplanade Markets, ride the roller coaster at Luna Park, have coffee and cake in Acland Street, dine at one of the many restaurants in Fitzroy Street, or catch the ferry to Williamstown from St Kilda pier. There is also Albert Park Lake, St. Kilda Beach, cycle and roller-blading tracks that go on forever, and the cinemas & live theatre. The list of attractions goes on an on.

If you're in Melbourne on a working holiday, St Kilda is a great place to base yourself. It is serviced by three major tram routes but if you must drive there's plenty of parking – or why not work up a healthy appetite for some of our great food - walk along the beach from Port Melbourne and enjoy the sweeping views of Port Philip Bay!
