Fairhaven is a small coastal locality in the Surf Coast Shire, Victoria, Australia. In the 2011 census, Fairhaven (excluding the rural sections of the locality but including adjacent Moggs Creek) had a population of 354 people. The village of Fairhaven is a popular holiday destination, with many homes being used for that purpose. It adjoins Fairhaven Beach, which at 6 km long is the longest beach on the Great Ocean Road. Fairhaven is separated from adjoining Aireys Inlet by the Painkalac Creek, and development in recent years has seen Fairhaven become increasingly joined to the Aireys Inlet township. Fairhaven Beach is a popular surfing destination, and the Fairhaven Surf Lifesaving Club, which was founded in 1957, has been described as Fairhaven's "social centre".
