Geelong's center for fun, food and relaxation is its award-winning Waterfront with things to see and do all within walking distance. An antique carousel beside the quay is a favourite; youngsters can do laps on the 36 painted horses and two chariots to familiar melodies from a 19th century fairground organ.
Customs Park recalls Geelong's maritime importance in an artistic way. Unique metal and glass "cargo boxes" contain examples of the cargoes handled at the port and provide light at night. To complete the picture, Waterfront Geelong has modern street lighting and street furniture to match the contemporary feel. Geelong's Baywalk Bollards are part of the overall focus on art along the waterfront. Take a look at some of the more prominent public art works.
