Think of Warrnambool, think of whales in winter. True, but the town is much more than cliff tops above an endless ocean. With a growing population nudging 30,000, Warrnambool is the largest city in Victoria’s south-west. It has all the services expected of a large regional centre, from health and education to retail, transport and finance.

Blessed with coastal charms, Warrnambool is a paradise for outdoor recreation, but it has a strong cultural tradition too, especially in art, music and writing. Youthful energies generated in the schools, TAFE and university give the city vitality and vision.

In Warrnambool, life is as crammed or as casual as you want to make it.
