Seaworks Maritime Precinct — Attraction in Melbourne

The entire exhibition was absolutely breathtaking. We had a wonderful time reading about the stories behind the photography. Most of the artwork was incredibly eye opening and highlighted the importance of protecting the ocean and learning to live in harmony with our surroundings. There is limited seating, so, keep that in mind when visiting the exhibition. The entire exhibition could have been more immersive also.

All in all it was a wonderful exhibition which did leave a profound feeling of hope...

Melbourne's weather is unpredictable so make sure to bring blankets and extra cushions for the backside. The website says free parking on Ann Street but also saw people...

Went to see the Steve McCurry ‘Icons’ exhibition at Seaworks in Williamstown mid-week. We did not go to the maritime museum in the same area, only visiting the exhibition space that currently has the Icons photographic exhibition, that is very moving, as well as, thought provoking and inspirational for any aspiring photographer. There are good rest rooms and exhibition book shop inside. This is an excellent exhibition and reasonably priced. Angle street parking in Nelson Place outside is via phone app or coins - not credit card. Can imagine that the precinct will get very busy on the weekend. Only a short walk from the many restaurants along...
