Where the Bay
sets the tone.
Elwood Bathers sits right on the sands of Elwood Beach, just 9km from Melbourne’s CBD. Floor-to-ceiling windows with uninterrupted views across Port Phillip Bay. A setting that naturally encourages people to pause, breathe, and be present with one another.
We’ve held celebrations of life here that felt entirely true to the person being remembered: unhurried, warm, and surrounded by something genuinely beautiful. The sunlight off the bay, a moody storm strolling in, even the odd bay swimmer all add to the charm of this venue and location.
Tomorrow Funerals partner venue. There is no venue hire fee. Food and beverage is arranged directly with the venue and a minimum spend applies. Ask us to enquire on your behalf.

Who it suits
Particularly fitting for those who loved the water or the quieter rhythms of bayside Melbourne.
Best time of day
Mid morning or late afternoon, if you can. The light across the bay softens everything, and there's a natural unhurried quality to the space at that hour.
