Hot Springs

Discover Hot Springs Australia

With a truly diverse landscape, Australia has so much to offer visitors and citizens. Whether you realise it or not, hot springs in Australia provide a unique wellness experience in breathtaking surroundings.

Soaking in natural mineral waters is a highly relaxing activity, but it’s about much more than just relaxation. Hot springs are a tranquil method of connecting to nature and being at one with the outdoors while restoring your body, mind, and spirit to balance. With peaceful geothermal pools and award-winning bathhouses, no two natural hot water spring experiences are the same.

If you’re looking for a combination experience, you can pair your trip to the hot spring with Farmer’s Lunch. Combination hot spring deals provide the best of both worlds, whether you’d prefer a gourmet lunch, grazing board, or two-course dining. Who wouldn’t appreciate the gift of total relaxation and a delicious bite to eat?

Of course, if you prefer to enjoy dinner separate from your hot springs relaxation, the guided contrast therapy at Peninsula Hot Springs might be the perfect choice. This therapy is guided by science, alternating between heat and cold therapies for a serious wellness boost. Alternatively, you can browse through the other RedBalloon experiences and book something nearby to make the most of your time in the area.

Peninsula Hot Springs

The Victoria’s Peninsula Hot Springs are located on the Mornington Peninsula. Whether you prefer unwinding in a cave pool while your friend walks the reflexology path or you’ve always wanted to experience the Turkish Hamam, the natural mineral pools are a celebrated destination. In addition to the mineral pools’ calming qualities, it’s also good for your skin. With so many benefits, it would be rude not to visit!

Rejuvenate your body, mind, and spirit with a hydrating oil massage that comes with a hot springs bathing pass to the nearest hot springs, which is just a ten-minute drive from the day spa. Your massage experience begins with a hot towel removal back scrub before your 60-minute hot oil massage begins. The bathing pass allows you four hours to enjoy as many of the 30 bathing experiences as you wish.

Alternatively, you can book a private 45-minute bathing experience for two. Select the essential oil of your choice and enter a new level of relaxation. This refreshing experience takes place in the iconic hot springs of the Mornington Peninsula, and the remote location is the perfect backdrop for a day of tranquillity.

Gippsland Lakes Hot Spring

If you’ve been thinking about planning a serene escape, you may have seen that one of the best things to do in Gippsland is take an unforgettable trip to the natural hot springs at Gippsland Lakes.

This is your opportunity to float your way to tranquillity in warm geothermal pools while watching lakeside views pass you by. You can further enhance the experience with a spa treatment, facial, or massage.

Enjoy a graze and bathe package at Metung Hot Springs. The springs’ natural geothermal waters are fed from a well 500 metres below the surface at a temperature of 45°C. While you bathe, you can sit back, graze, and enjoy the view. It’s the ultimate in relaxation, and if you know someone who needs it, you can gift it directly or opt for gift vouchers. Once you’re fully relaxed, you can explore what else Gippsland has to offer. Why not pair your trip to the hot springs with a two-night glamping stay, a premium mystery picnic, or a dolphin and whale watching cruise? There’s so much more to uncover!

What to Bring to the Hot Springs

Plan ahead to make the most of your experience! You’ll want to pack a bag with swimwear, sunglasses, sunscreen, and any other basics you may like to have on hand. You might want to take a hat if it’s hot and sunny out.

Hydration is key when soaking in hot springs, so make sure you take a refillable water bottle. While most venues provide guests with robes and towels, check your booking to be sure.

Many experiences include food and drinks, so it’s key to check your booking about what to expect if you are having a gourmet dining experience. It’s just as important that you check your booking to see if you can bring your own food.

If you’re concerned about the dress code, look into the guidelines for the hot spring you have booked your experience for. The general rule of thumb is to wear neat casual attire, just don’t forget your swimwear!
