Merricks is a small town in Victoria, Australia in
the southeastern Mornington Peninsula
between Hastings and Flinders. Its local
government area is the Shire of Mornington
Peninsula.

Merricks is a tiny settlement along the
Frankston-Flinders Road which has changed
little over the years from its earlier rural
functions, and many of the original settler
houses still stand today. Merricks features a
newly restored General Store (built in 1927)
incorporating a post office and newsagency,
the Peninsula Quarter Horse Association's base
and a chocolate factory. Also in Merricks are
the Merricks Creek vineyard specialising in
pinot noir production and Stoniers Winery
(1978) producing chardonnay and pinot noir.

A 6.3 km mostly tree-lined horse riding trail,
established by the former Shire of Hastings in
the mid-1980s along a disused railway route,
runs roughly east-west from Merricks Station
Ground Reserve to Red Hill through mostly
rural land between the Coolart and East
Creeks.

Merricks is served by the 782 bus route
operated by Peninsula Bus Lines between
Frankston and Flinders.
