About Frankston
Frankston sits on Port Phillip Bay at postcode 3199, about 47 km from the CBD by road. It is the largest centre on Melbourne's south east bayside and the gateway to the Mornington Peninsula.
Town Centre and Foreshore
The main shopping and dining streets are Wells Street and Young Street near Frankston Station, with Bayside Shopping Centre on the edge of the town centre and the Frankston Arts Centre close by. Frankston Beach runs along the foreshore, so the suburb draws visitors as well as commuters.
Hospital and Transport Links
Frankston Hospital, run by Peninsula Health, takes patients from right across the Peninsula. Frankston Station is the end of the Frankston line, one of Melbourne's busiest, with trains through Flinders Street to the city, and buses continue south to Peninsula towns such as Rosebud, Rye and Sorrento. The Nepean Highway runs north to the CBD and south along the bay.
Getting Around by Taxi
Homes spread well beyond the town centre into Frankston North, Frankston South, Karingal and Langwarrin. There is no direct train to the airport, so travellers with luggage or an early flight usually take a taxi, and we also run hospital trips and journeys between suburbs across the southern corridor. Call 0412 456 588 to book.
Frankston is one of Silver Taxi Melbourne’s busiest pickup suburbs. We cover it 24 hours a day from our Clayton base, about 30 kilometres away, with bookings that range from 3am airport departures to late night station pickups when the last train pulls in and passengers need a cab home.
Whether you need a taxi to Melbourne Airport, a trip down the Mornington Peninsula, a corporate transfer to the CBD or a local ride to Karingal or Frankston South, book online or call 0412 456 588 and we will confirm your driver straight away.
Airport Transfers from Frankston
The most requested booking from Frankston is a trip to Melbourne Airport at Tullamarine. The route runs north on EastLink and the Western Ring Road, then up to Tullamarine, about 75 to 85 kilometres depending on your pickup address. The weekday meter estimate is $184 to $202.
The drive takes 60 to 80 minutes, so leave Frankston about two and a half hours before a domestic flight, or three hours in the weekday morning peak, and about four hours before an international departure.
Between 10pm and 4am on any night the night rate of $2.34 per kilometre applies, which puts the same trip at about $195 to $215. Silver Service adds a set $11 surcharge, and a maxi taxi for a group of up to 11 adds $17.80 to the metered fare.
Avalon Airport is also covered. It is about 105 kilometres from Frankston via the West Gate and the Princes Freeway, and the weekday estimate is $242 to $266.
Frankston to the Mornington Peninsula
Frankston is where the Peninsula begins, and many of our Frankston trips head south rather than north: dinner in Mornington, a day at the beach in Rosebud, the Searoad ferry from Sorrento across to Queenscliff, a soak at Peninsula Hot Springs in Fingal, or the cellar doors around Red Hill and Main Ridge. Weekday estimates from Frankston:
| From Frankston to | Standard Taxi | SUV or Maxi |
|---|---|---|
| Mornington, about 15 km | $44 to $48 | $61 to $67 |
| Red Hill wineries, about 35 km | $86 to $94 | $104 to $114 |
| Rosebud, about 39 km | $95 to $105 | $113 to $124 |
| Peninsula Hot Springs, about 48 km | $116 to $128 | $134 to $148 |
| Sorrento and the ferry, about 55 km | $130 to $143 | $148 to $162 |
| Portsea, about 58 km | $138 to $152 | $156 to $171 |
These are weekday meter estimates on the same rates as our fare estimator. Fridays to Sundays are charged at $2.30 per kilometre and nights from 10pm to 4am at $2.34, and we confirm the fare when we call. Book the trip home at the same time, because a return taxi from the southern Peninsula can be hard to find late at night.
For a full day among the Peninsula wineries, our winery tour service keeps one driver with you all day, waiting while you taste and taking you from cellar door to cellar door and home again.
Silver Service Taxi in Frankston
Silver Service is our premium tier: a late model executive sedan, kept clean inside and out, and a driver in a suit who helps with your bags at both ends of the trip. It runs on the same meter as a standard taxi plus a set $11 Silver Service surcharge, with no booking fee and no surge pricing. From Frankston to Melbourne Airport that comes to about $195 to $215 on a weekday.
Frankston passengers book a silver taxi for:
- Airport transfers to Tullamarine or Avalon, with the flight tracked for your pickup home.
- Business travel and client pickups, paid by Cabcharge or a monthly corporate account.
- Peninsula weddings and winery lunches where the car is part of the day.
- Special occasions such as anniversaries, formals and dinners in Frankston or Mornington.
Every Silver Service car seats up to four passengers with room for two to three suitcases. Choose Silver Service in the booking form or ask for it when you call. Read more about Silver Service taxi in Melbourne.
Frankston Station and Late Night Pickups
Frankston Station is the last stop on the Frankston line, so late trains bring a steady demand for taxis from passengers heading home. We cover the station and the surrounding streets at any hour. If you are on an evening train from Flinders Street or Southern Cross, book your taxi before you board and a driver will be waiting when you arrive.
Many passengers live beyond walking distance of the station, in Frankston South, Frankston North, Carrum Downs, Skye or Langwarrin, and book a Silver Taxi from the station rather than wait for a connecting bus.
Frankston Hospital and Medical Transport
Frankston Hospital on Hastings Road is one of the largest public hospitals in Victoria’s south east. We run regular trips to and from the hospital for non emergency patients, visiting family, appointments before admission and discharge, for anyone who cannot easily use public transport. TAC and WorkSafe trips to Frankston Hospital on an approved claim are available.
Frankston to Melbourne Airport Taxi
Metered airport transfers with no surge pricing, ever. You see an estimate before you book, and we confirm the fare when we call. We track your flight in real time and your driver waits if delayed, at no extra charge.
