Today, on Australia Day 2026, we're thrilled to officially launch Geelong.city – a brand new way to discover and connect with local businesses across Greater Geelong.

Whether you're a long-time local searching for a new favourite café, a newcomer looking for trusted services, or a business owner wanting to reach more customers, Geelong.city is built for you.

Why We Built Geelong.city

Geelong is Victoria's second-largest city and one of Australia's fastest-growing regions. From the stunning Geelong Waterfront to the rolling hills of the Bellarine Peninsula, our city is home to thousands of incredible local businesses – many of which can be hard to find online.

We created Geelong.city to solve that problem. Our mission is simple: make it easy for residents to discover local businesses, and help those businesses get found.

What You'll Find on Geelong.city

Our directory covers every type of business you might need:

Restaurants & Dining – From waterfront fine dining to hidden laneway cafés, discover where locals really eat
Shopping & Retail – Boutiques, markets, specialty stores, and everything in between
Health & Wellness – Doctors, dentists, gyms, and wellness services to keep you feeling your best
Local Services – Tradies, accountants, lawyers, and professionals you can trust
Entertainment & Recreation – Things to do, places to visit, and experiences to enjoy
Accommodation – Hotels, B&Bs, and holiday rentals for visitors
Automotive – Mechanics, car dealers, and auto services
Education – Schools, training providers, and learning centres

Every listing includes real Google reviews, ratings, contact details, opening hours, and photos – everything you need to make informed decisions.

We've already indexed over 1,000 local businesses and we're adding more every day. If you own a business in Geelong and don't see your listing, don't worry – we're constantly expanding our directory to cover every corner of Greater Geelong.
