Plan Your Day at Boneo Discovery Park

Our story

The Mornington Peninsula reaches south from Melbourne between the calm waters of Port Phillip and Western Port, with the wild surf of Bass Strait along its southern edge. Boneo Discovery Park sits in Fingal on the southern peninsula, in the quiet rural pocket between Rosebud, Rye and Cape Schanck, just inland from the Gunnamatta ocean beaches.

The park sits right next to the Tootgarook wetlands, the largest shallow freshwater marsh left anywhere in the Port Phillip and Western Port region. Thousands of years ago this low ground was a shallow inlet of the bay. Today the wetlands are fed by groundwater rising through the peat, and around 160 bird species and close to 250 native plant species call them home.

It all adds up to the perfect place for a full day of outdoor adventure on the Mornington Peninsula, just five minutes from Rosebud. Laser Skirmish, Rock ’n’ Rope, Mini Golf and the Wetlands Discovery Walk will keep the kids going for hours, and the Ultimate Discovery Pass covers the lot at one fixed price: $79 per person, or $250 for a Family Ticket for up to four guests. One ticket covers every activity, so you know what the day costs before you arrive.

A world of adventure is waiting for you.

Laser Skirmish: outdoor laser tag

Allow an hour for this experience and make sure to book in a time to get your thrills with the intensity of paintball, but none of the bruises or mess to clean up. Laser Skirmish is outdoor laser tag near Rosebud on the Mornington Peninsula, played for real: duck behind cover, plan your attack, then charge. It’s loud, fast and tactical, and it’s the one game where kids can out-think their parents and win fair and square. Bring the family, round up your mates or make it the birthday everyone talks about at school on Monday.

Rock ‘n’ Rope: high ropes, climbing wall and flying fox

Set aside an hour to book in your set time on this adventure. Pull on a harness and helmet and get ready for adventure. Rock ’n’ Rope is a ropes course near Rosebud on the Mornington Peninsula, set high in the trees. Wobble your way across the course, find your nerve on the rock wall, then fly down the flying fox with a grin you can’t wipe off. Every step boosts your bravery.
