Where is Riptide filmed?
Riptide was filmed on location in Melbourne and Victoria.
Some scenes were shot in the Network 10 studios in Nunawading, Melbourne.
Network 10 studios were also used in the production of Neighbours.
Actress Jo Joyner, who plays the lead role of Alison in the series expressed her excitement at the production taking place in Australia when it was first announced.
She said: “I am thrilled to be filming in the fabulous city of Melbourne and surrounding countryside, an area that I have always wanted to explore.”
Can I Visit Melbourne?
If you’ve never been to Melbourne, it should be on your bucket list.
Melbourne is the cultural capital of Australia, known for its music, art centres and museums.
You won’t be bored, because there is always something going on.
The best time to visit is between March and May and September and November.
This is because these months are considered the shoulder seasons when the temperature is moderate.
Unfortunately, Network 10 studios is not open to the public.
But it is home to some of our favourite Australian shows including The Bachelor Australia, MasterChef Australia, and I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!
