Melbourne is largely located on the mainland, but also consists of a barrier island across the Indian River Lagoon.

Melbourne features a number of activities and attractions, from golf courses to historic sites. The city also hosts a number of events, including the Melbourne Arts Festival, Oktoberfest, and Friday Fest, a downtown street party with food, live music, a Kid Zone, and more.
