Bells beach is just over an hour out of Melbourne and they hold the Rip Curl Pro there so saying there's no surfing in Melbourne is hilarious. Also, we have reasonable public transport in regional Victoria. You can get a vline train or coach to just about anywhere in Victoria at the same cost as metro PT prices.
Melbourne is situated at the end of Port Phillip Bay, so although the Bay is actually the size of a small sea, the beaches are not really the same as a coastal beaches because the opening to the Bay is narrow and the waves are nowhere near as good as waves straight off the ocean … kite surfers love it when the wind kicks up, and when a storm comes in, you will see kite surfers flying over the waters of the bay.
Vladimir has not lived in Melbourne long enough to understand the weather patterns. We can get four seasons in one day but we have many days of not having that. The city is not windy. In summer there can be quite a number of days over 30 degrees celsius. There are about 18 beaches around Port Melbourne Bay which Melbourne wraps around and more on the ocean (Bass Straight) which the Bay empties into.
@@kelsey_roy The beaches in Melbourne are BAY beaches, because Melbourne wraps around a HUGE BAY, many times bigger than Sydney Harbour. The generally quieter BAY beaches are great for children and for all types of water sports. Port Melbourne BAY is many times bigger than Sydney Harbour and the beaches are closer and more accessible to the population. Brisbane is not even on open sea water but kms up river from it. Victoria's ocean beaches outside that bay are fantastic. Two of the many examples are Bell's Beach which hosts World Championship Surfing contests and the NINETY MILE (long) beach. Some of those beaches are also homes to Little Penguins. Your uneducated comment was garbage !
I disagree. Having lived around the world, Melbourne is very windy on average! Which makes sense because we're right on the coast but that's true of most Australian cities so maybe we don't notice it as much. There are now extended periods with blocking highs like the current winter 2024 where the wind has dropped right off the radar, but this is an unusual weather pattern associated with climate change. But overall there's a reason Victoria has the biggest wind farms in the nation. It's windy.
Sorry , you have only been in Melbourne for a few months and you obviously don’t travel away from city centre. The beaches you mention are bay beaches, not ocean beaches . Try Portsea or Bells or any surf beach for that matter .December although technically summer is rarely warm to hot. You say it’s always windy? Don’t know what you are talking about , rarely windy. The 23/24 past summer was cool by usual standards . Suggest a bit more time and travel required before critiquing
First time viewer & subscriber here - greetings from Tasmania - can I please ask the name of your accommodation & do they do short term rentals 5-7 days? Cheers!
Hi! I did a long term rental, I was in CBD. 😄 for short term rentals I would advise to check on Airbnb, Booking, Agoda, etc. I’m sure you will find some beautiful place where to stay!🙌🏼
Hi! I found it searching on Flatmates app. The most popular apps to search are Flatmates, Flatmates finders and Real estate. Otherwise sometimes you can find something even on Facebook 😊
Check the BoM record. It has only got to 40° once or twice since 2019. Vladimir is right, the average summer max is precisely 25°. We love to exaggerate about the weather. If people say it's cold we say "but it's sooo hot here in summer!!" If people say it's hot we jump in "but but 4 seasons in one day!!" Gotta laugh at Melburnians obsession with the weather. Melbourne enjoys one of the mildest climates on the planet, with occasional weather.
@@abhizithcherukuri5230 Hi! 😄 I have been searching on Flatmates and Flatmatefinders. I didn’t have big problems to find an accommodation to be honest, but you might have to search a bit. Be careful that usually there are many scams, so I would advise you to see the apartment in person and to not pay high sum of money before entering the house (I know someone that did it and than got stolen). I hope it might help you😄
Have you ever visited Melbourne?😎
@@mariavuzen9976 wonderful!😄

Beaches are garbage compared to the massive ones you have in Sydney and QLD

You are talking about city beaches! We have absolutely beautiful surf beaches and National Parks just outside of Melbourne.
Yes, some beaches outside Melbourne are incredible!😍
It has won severable times the award for no 1 most liveable city in the world!
Yesss, more I live here, and more I understand why! 😍
You forgot to mention the best coffee in the world that has been recognised world wide. Melbourne is well renowned for this!
The coffee is very good here! Coming from Italy, I would still prefer the one from Italy though. Thank you for sharing!😊
@@discoverwithvladimir Our coffee culture began with Italians who migrated here in the 1950s. Lygon Street in Carlton is known as 'Little Italy'.
@@barnowl. thank you for sharing!
We had a really cold summer last summer. This one coming us predicted to be more normal, ie hot.
You have just got here.! The temp can get up to 38 to 40 in the summer. 🔥 🔥 🔥

How did you find your accommodation? How difficult was it? Do you have any tips?
