About YHA Port Fairy
This charming fishing village is a must see. Port Fairy is located at the end of the iconic Great Ocean Road and is one of the busiest fishing ports in Victoria. Watch the fishermen unload their catch for the day, laze on the beach, learn to surf or stand up paddleboard with Go Surf and wander the wide streets lined with quaint nineteenth century cottages including our own YHA!

Reviews of YHA Port Fairy
- "Brilliant! We loved the homey touches and welcoming atmosphere of the place ...comfortable , clean, well equipped kitchen and gorgeous courtyard garden. Jess the manager was very helpful and friendly." - Kim
- "Friendly, homey well-kept historic hostel in idyllic fishing village. This is my favourite hostel in Australia, I’ve been going to it for years. The rooms in the premises are kept immaculately clean, and comfy and will set out. The kitchen is a wonderful space to not only cook but swap stories and travel advice with like-minded people. The hostel itself is situated perfectly within the town. One street away from a picturesque Moyne River with sailing and fishing boats, 10 mins walking is a turquoise swimming beach. Five minutes walk the other way is the town's main street, which offers scrumptious meals, general provisions and delicious ice cream. The hostel itself has a mixture of family, double and single rooms as well as dorm rooms, all our beautifully kept and very comfortable. The hostel boasts 1840’s grandeur - a large Victorian lounge room is cosy and comfortable and a great place to meet other travellers." - Jennifer
