runs between Port Fairy and Warrnambool.
Battery Hill
Located across the bridge from the picturesque harbour, Battery Hill is worthy of explora-
tion, with cannon fortifications positioned here in 1887 to protect the town from foreign
warships. You'll also encounter resident black wallabies. It was originally used as a flag-
staff, so the views are good.
HISTORIC SITE
Wharf Area
Back in the 1850s Port Fairy's port was one of the busiest in Australia, serving as the
main departure point for ships heading to England loaded up with wool, gold and wheat.
Today there's still plenty going on at this charming marina, from the luxury yachts to the
weather-worn fishing boats moored here.
