Correction (10 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 9 October 2026.

Two places passed our checks for gyms and fitness, and that is the honest count. Fitness First is on Bay Road in Highett, and Squash Melbourne is over the border in Moorabbin, so this page works as an in and around Highett guide.

Both were checked against OpenStreetMap and the place’s own website. We print no prices for either, and only the squash centre’s weekly timetable is in our sources, so nothing here is ranked. It is a list of what each listing says, nothing more.

The quick picks

Fitness First — 241-245 Bay Road, Highett VIC 3190

Fitness First’s own club page gives its address as 241-245 Bay Road, Highett, and OpenStreetMap tags the same spot as Fitness First. That makes it the one gym on this page. We are not printing hours or prices for it, so the club page is the place to check membership and timetable details. Not been inside a gym for a while? Start there.

Get involved: Open the club page on the Fitness First site and read what it lists before you turn up.

Squash Melbourne — 10-12 Independence Street, Moorabbin VIC 3189

Squash Melbourne is at 10-12 Independence Street, Moorabbin, and its own site and OpenStreetMap agree on that address. Its site lists a weekly timetable running from Monday 1pm to 9pm through to Sunday 10am to 4pm, with extended hours on competition nights. The site carries no date we could see, so treat the hours as a guide and confirm them.

Comps and age groups: The site mentions competition nights on Tuesday and Wednesday, but we are not printing age groups or fees, so check the site before you plan a night.
