Rosebud is one of the largest beach-side commercial centres on the Mornington Peninsula, located between the popular destinations of Rye and Dromana.

Rosebud's commercial centre, including the Port Phillip Plaza Shopping Centre, fronts the southern side of Point Nepean Road. Across this road and extending down to the beach foreshore are a number of attractive parks, reserves, sporting and community facilities. The Rosebud Pier is situated opposite Jetty Road and extends around 300 metres into the bay.

Like many of the seaside resorts in the area, Rosebud enjoys clean and sheltered beaches as well as camping areas on the foreshore. A number of golf courses, bowling clubs and several large sports reserves make Rosebud the sporting capital of the Mornington Peninsula.

Immediately to the east of Rosebud is the towering peak of Arthurs Seat, rising over 300 metres above sea level and offering spectacular views along the peninsula.

A 12 kilometre journey south of Rosebud along Boneo Road is Cape Schanck where a historic lighthouse crowns the rugged southern tip of the Mornington Peninsula.
