What’s not to love about Dromana? Nestled between Safety Beach and McCrae, you’ll find Dromana sitting pretty with the rolling hills of the hinterland as its backdrop. It has natural beauty as far as the eye can see and has become a magnet for those seeking fabulous food, wine and coffee, and artisan creations.
Naturally the bay is a feature all year round. Whether it’s a beach walk in wild and woolly weather or swimming in summer or fishing off the pier, Dromana beach is popular. The collection of colourful beach boxes lining the sand add to the view and give this postcode some of its eclectic character. The warm and welcoming community is another of Dromana’s charms.

The shopping strip across from the bay is the place for everything from excellent coffee to first-rate dining and boutique browsing.
Away from the water and the shopping village is Dromana’s ever-evolving industrial area. Inside the industrial buildings and warehouses you’ll meet some of the Peninsula’s finest brewers, distillers, coffee roasters, cheese makers, candle makers, antique sellers – the list goes on.
Spring is here, and it’s time to get out and about and show your support for all Dromana has to offer.
Some of Dromana’s gems are off the beaten track, such as the drive-in that’s been here since 1961. A little further along from the drive-in you can stock up on some of the Peninsula’s unbeatable fresh produce at Torello Farm.
Keep heading inland and you’ll hit the dirt road that will take you to Crittenden Estate, one of the oldest family-owned and operated wineries on the Peninsula. Settle in and enjoy the stunning grounds and equally stunning wine made by winemakers who are passionate about creating cool-climate wines with integrity.
Garden-lovers can’t miss a trip to Heronswood homestead and gardens, home of The Diggers Club. This is the place for heirloom flowers and vegetables, for wandering the pathways and being enchanted by the carefully tended lawns and garden beds – not to mention the magnificent view of the bay from high on the hill where Heronswood is located.
Dromana really has it all.
