Holidays in Lara

Excellent! Your leave's been approved. Now all you've gotta do is say goodbye to office life for a while and book a ticket to Lara — ASAP!

It's situated 520 kilometres to the southwest of Australia's capital, Canberra.

Keep each and every member of the family entertained with a trip to Serendip Sanctuary.

Spend a few hours enjoying the sound of the swell and picking up perfect seashells at St. Kilda Beach or Brighton Beach.

There are some lovely natural sights not too far from Lara. Why not travel 30 kilometres to Point Cook Coastal Park? Alternatively, take in the picturesque sights of Port Phillip Heads Marine National Park, 35 kilometres away.

A visit to the Lara Heritage and Historical Museum will teach you something new about the local culture and the many people who live here.

Whether you're an Australian rules football (AFL) fan or you just want to taste the gripping atmosphere, try to see a live game at Kardinia Park, the home turf of the Geelong Football Club. You'll find the arena 17 kilometres away in Greater Geelong City.

Do you like the sound of the Geelong Performing Arts Centre and the Geelong Golf Course? These awesome sights are in Corio, located just 7 kilometres southwest of Lara. Or maybe the Mt Rothwell Biodiversity Interpretation Centre and You Yangs Regional Park appeal more to you? To see them, head to Little River, 10 kilometres to the northeast.

You may get the urge to set up camp in Hamlyn Heights for a while. This destination is 15 kilometres away and pretty close to the National Wool Museum, Rippleside Park and Waterworld. Some other nearby sights are The Heights Heritage House and Garden and Steampacket Gardens.

Would you like to nibble, nip, chomp, chew and drink your way across Bellarine Peninsula? A world of tempting flavours is waiting for you, so put on your stretchiest jeans and bon appétit!

Beef and dairy products are two popular ingredients in many dishes here. If you don't have a liking for them already, you might by the end of your getaway!

You don't need to agonise over the restaurant menu when you're in Lara. Get stuck right in and choose some of the region's most well-known dishes, such as salt and pepper squid and meat pie.

It won't take much to persuade you to taste peach melba, a sweet treat that'll make you want to pack everything up and settle down here forever.

Life's not all beer and skittles, but there's nothing wrong with kicking back with a cold one every now and then. While you're here, ensure it's Melbourne Bitter.

Bundaberg Spiced Rum is worth a try. Straight, mixed, in a cocktail? Your barkeeper will have a few tasty suggestions.

Be on the lookout for Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon and Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir on the wine lists. They're well-known regional favourites for both vino savants and novices alike.

Tullamarine Airport (MEL), the closest airport, is 55 kilometres to the northeast from the middle of Lara. Map a route, pack your suitcase and set your alarm — and don't hit the snooze button too many times!
