Explore Geelong with Hertz
Geelong is a popular holiday destination for both locals and tourists alike: throughout the summer months, in particular, people love to escape the hustle and bustle of the city for a dreamy coastal holiday here or in the nearby towns of the Bellarine Peninsula. Geelong is a beautiful town, with lots to see and do here. It’s just a 20-minute drive from Avalon Airport, which makes it really accessible with your Hertz rental car.
When you’re in Geelong, you’ll likely start by exploring the waterfront. The town here overlooks Corio Bay, which is a beautiful backdrop to any type of activity you do along here. Perhaps have a bite to eat or drink along the harbour at one of the many cafes and restaurants that sprinkle the water, like La Vista, Fishermen’s Pier, and Edge Geelong to just name a few.
There is also plenty to see and do away from the harbour itself. For example, why not check out one of the museums in Geelong? There is the interesting National Wool Museum, the Geelong Arts Centre, and the Geelong Library and Heritage Centre, all of which give a fascinating insight into the history of the town.
However you choose to spend your time in Geelong, you’ll have a fantastic time exploring the area in your Hertz rental car.
