Sightseeing
Peninsula Hot Springs is a must visit in the area. There are two distinct areas to choose from; the Spa Dreaming Centre which is catered for adults and those seeking a more spa experience or the family-friendly Bath House which has over 50 globally inspired bathing experiences in addition to cafes, wellness activities, relaxation cabanas and often live music.
We would recommend visiting early in the morning and watching the sunrise or trying their new Moonlit bathing which starts at 11pm. The Moonlit bathing experience is slightly more affordable and a much quieter time to visit.
