Practical Info for Melbourne
Pickup & Depot Info
Melbourne campervan depots are clustered around Tullamarine Airport and the inner-northern suburbs (Campbellfield, Somerton). Britz, Maui, and Apollo share a mega-depot in Tullamarine. JUCY operates from Tullamarine as well. Travellers Autobarn has its depot in Mitcham (eastern suburbs). Most offer free airport shuttle transfers.
Driving Tips
Melbourne has the famous hook turn — unique to the CBD where you turn right from the left lane at certain intersections. CityLink and EastLink are tolled electronically. Tram tracks in the inner suburbs require extra caution. The Great Ocean Road has some narrow sections — take your time with a larger motorhome. Speed cameras are widespread.
Caravan Parks & Campgrounds
BIG4 Melbourne Holiday Park (Coburg) is the closest full-facility option to the CBD. Ashley Gardens Holiday Village (Brooklyn) is convenient if heading west to the Great Ocean Road. For the Great Ocean Road itself, Torquay, Apollo Bay, and Port Campbell all have excellent holiday parks.

Best Time to Travel

Autumn (March–May) offers stunning colours and fewer crowds. Spring (September–November) is beautiful but can be wet. Winter is cold (6–14°C) but great for gourmet food trips.
