Fish Creek is a small township in Victoria, Australia. At the 2006 census, Fish Creek and the surrounding area had a population of 726.[1]

It has an unusually high number of art and craft shops, catering to tourists who pass through the town on their way to Wilson's Promontory. Fish Creek Memorial Hall, built in 1930, is under threat of demolition. Some of the local residents are attempting to save it, by raising funds through sales from an impromptu opportunity shop (charity shop) that they have set up in the hall.
