The Great Ocean Balloon Flight – Geelong and the Bellarine

Adventure and Outdoors Tours

The beautiful Bellarine Peninsula, Geelong and the Barrabool Hills, plus the ocean views and lovely Port Phillip Bay seen from the vantage point of a hot air balloon ride is certainly an experience you will never forget. See the sun rise over the water and enjoy the peaceful adventure of floating in the wind. This is a gentle activity to contemplate, to enjoy the silence of nature together with the roar of the burners which operate intermittently to keep the balloon afloat. Passengers never cease to be awed by this ancient sport which defies time and technology. You will participate, if you can, in different tasks to help the pilot during the inflation and after the balloon has landed, to pack it away. This activity requires early starts as we like to take off before sunrise. The effort is well worth it and to top it up, at the end there is a delicious (optional) breakfast to enjoy with the rest of the small group of passengers to make this a most memorable morning and the perfect gift for a loved one.

Take to the skies near Geelong, Victoria’s second-largest city, and discover a breathtaking mix of coastline and countryside. From above, enjoy rolling green hills, vibrant farmland, the winding Barwon River, and the sparkling Port Phillip Bay. On clear mornings, views extend to the You Yangs and the distant ocean.

Flights launch from various locations depending on wind conditions, including Geelong, Murgheboluc, Bannockburn, and the Bellarine Peninsula – each offering a unique perspective of this stunning region. Ballooning operates year-round, weather permitting, with peak season from November to March.

Geelong is just over an hour from Melbourne, making it ideal for a day trip or overnight stay.

The meeting point is Holiday Inn and Suites Geelong, 1.5 hours before sunrise. You will travel with their team to the launch site. The ground crew will organise your return from the landing site. The experience also includes a gourmet buffet with sparkling wine at Holiday Inn.

The total duration of the experience is about 4 to 4.5 hours.

Experience Victoria in a way few do – floating above where the coastline meets the countryside.
