Walking through the streets and surrounds of Port Fairy is like walking back through time. Lots of old homes and charming, old, refurbished whaler's cottages and numerous stately buildings, many of which have been classified by the National Trust. Along with Portland, Port Fairy was one of Victoria's earliest ports. The reason for this is that the beautiful and picturesque Moyne River affords one of the safest harbours along the Victorian coastline. In the early 19th century, whalers settled along the banks of the Moyne River - revelling in its safe anchorage and consequently hunting the Southern Right Whale to the point of extinction. Today however, the whales have made the area their home and come to nearby Logan's Beach each year in winter to give birth. Rather than hunt whales; crayfish & lobster are now on the menu and the local fishing fleet lay side by side with a large variety of sailing craft including some luxurious, ocean going yachts.
