Westgate Park, located on the edge of the city in Port Melbourne, has been known to turn a delicious shade of pink from time to time. This vibrant wetland and nature sanctuary sits under the Westgate Bridge. It’s been turning pink every year since the summer of 2012/13, when a collection of hot temperatures, algae combinations, lack of rainfall and excessive sunlight came together like a perfect pink witch’s brew. Luckily, the pink colour has no impact on birdlife on the lake, who you’ll regularly see frollicking around the shoreline.
Bus 235 from Queen Victoria Market/Franklin Street or Southern Cross station to end of Wharf Road (every 20 minutes on week days, hourly on weekends) or
Bus 237 from Queen Victoria Market/Franklin Street or Southern Cross station to end of Lorimer Street (every 20/30 minutes week days only).
Tram 109 in Collins St to Station Pier and a longish walk along the foreshore towards the River and up Todd Road just past the Westgate bridge.
