About Balaclava

Balaclava is a small inner suburb 7 km south east of the Melbourne CBD, postcode 3183. It sits between St Kilda to the west and St Kilda East to the east, with Carlisle Street running through its centre as the main shopping and dining strip. The suburb has a long established Jewish community and Carlisle Street reflects this with kosher bakeries, delis and cafes alongside newer bars and brunch spots. The area is largely flat and residential, with a mix of apartment buildings and older terrace houses. Balaclava Station sits on the Sandringham line and gives the suburb its main name recognition beyond the local area. Balaclava Station on the Sandringham line connects to the city in about 15 minutes. Trams run along St Kilda Road to the west and several cross routes connect into nearby St Kilda and Prahran. The street network is well laid out for cycling and walking to nearby areas. For Melbourne Airport, there is no practical public transport connection from Balaclava. The Skybus runs from the city and connecting via Southern Cross adds time and inconvenience, particularly with luggage or at unsociable hours. Silver Taxi covers Balaclava for airport transfers and all general bookings around the suburb. Fares to Melbourne Airport run from $82 to $91. To arrange a pick up call 0412 456 588, available any time of day or night.
