About Melbourne Skydeck
Enjoy views of one of the biggest cities in the world from the Melbourne Skydeck, the 285-metre-high observation platform in the Eureka Tower! Formerly known as the Eureka Skydeck, its one of the highest public observation decks in the Southern Hemisphere and a great spot for taking photos and looking at the city below!
Zoom up to the 88th floor of the Eureka Tower on one of Australia's fastest elevators and enjoy spectacular floor-to-ceiling, 360° views and one of the most impressive panoramas in Australia! Standing at nearly 300 metres up, the observation deck offers sweeping views that stretch as far as Albert Park Lake, Port Phillip Bay, the Dandenong Ranges, and more.
Explore the entire 88th floor, and make the most of the 30 strategically placed viewfinders around the Skydeck which offers a whole new perspective of Melbourne as you can zoom in on buildings and places below! Relax and have a drink at Bar 88 which is also on the 88th floor and allows you to enjoy a drink and snack whilst taking in the views!
For an added thrill try 'The Edge,' experience which is a glass cube that extends out of the building at almost 300 metres above the city! The first of its kind, the platform juts out from the 88th floor creating a skywalk feeling and giving you the sensation of standing in mid-air! Its perfect for thrill-seekers, though not for the faint-hearted!
Melbourne Skydeck - Enjoy amazing views of the city and beyond.
Fun Fact: Eureka Tower hosts an annual competition called the 'Eureka Climb', which is a challenge for those that take part to race up the 1642 steps in the tower!
