Blink on the Frankston–Flinders Road and you might miss Merricks, a tiny settlement surrounded by vineyards and farmland near Western Port. Taxi Peninsula serves the area around the clock, whether you need a standard taxi for a quick trip or a wheelchair accessible vehicle with a ramp or hoist. Book online in about two minutes and you’ll get a confirmation by SMS or email.
Merricks is known for its food and wine. Pt. Leo Estate, with its sculpture park and restaurants, sits on the coastal side, and small wineries and farm gates are dotted along the back roads towards Red Hill. Residents head to Balnarring for everyday shopping, to Hastings or Mornington for bigger errands, and to Frankston Hospital or Rosebud Hospital for medical care. Melbourne Airport trips run north via the freeway.
Lunch and dinner bookings are a big part of what we do here, so if you’re planning a long afternoon at a winery, arrange your trip home in advance. We take MPTP cards, NDIS and aged-care accounts, and carers or support workers ride with the passenger. Groups can ask for the Maxi WAT. Residents use us just as often for practical trips: a specialist visit in Frankston, a pharmacy run to Balnarring or a ride home after a day procedure, where “pick up when ready” lets you tap “I’m ready” once you’re discharged. For airport runs, add your flight number so we can track an inbound flight.

Cosa devo sapere per spostarmi a Merricks?
Frankston–Flinders Road runs straight through Merricks, carrying traffic between Balnarring and Flinders, and it’s a fast country road with few places to pull over. Side roads lead into farms and vineyards, and some are unsealed, so please tell us the property name, any gate and where the driver should stop. There’s little lighting at night. Summer weekends bring extra visitors to the wineries and the nearby beaches at Point Leo and Merricks Beach, so traffic can bunch up around lunch. Public transport is very limited, so most people without a car rely on taxis to reach Merricks.
