Set in Port Fairy, 600 metres from Port Fairy East Beach, The Wandering Whale Port Fairy offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and barbecue facilities. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. The accommodation features a shared kitchen and free WiFi.

You can play billiards and darts at the hostel, and the area is popular for fishing and snorkelling. So impressed with check in - received a lovely text and letter with instructions and recommendations. Such a personal touch! A lovely old building with great facilities, felt like a home. Port Fairy very charming - would recommend sunset walk to lighthouse. Stayed in the coach house - spacious with 6 beds and enough room for bags, hope they don't add more beds as would be too crowded.
