Welcome to Greater Melbourne...

Melbourne’s Bays and Peninsulas offer unlimited opportunities for high adventure, endless entertainment and relaxation.

Traditionally famed for its 260km of unspoiled beaches which hem the bay’s eastern and western fringes, the Bays and Peninsula’s fame now also revolves around its wine industry, concentration of famed golf courses, galleries and quality markets, providing year-round appeal.

Take in the ambience of bayside Geelong, wander maritime Williamstown, consume the special atmosphere of cosmopolitan St Kilda, travel back in time at many historic seaside villages — quaint Queenscliff on the Bellarine Peninsula or stylish Sorrento on the Mornington Peninsula.

Located only 1 hour south of Melbourne’s CBD, the Mornington Peninsula can also be reached from the Great Ocean Road by car and passenger ferry from Queenscliff. Not to be missed it offers a wealth of natural secrets — the wild surf of the Mornington Peninsula’s ocean beaches, the tranquil bay beaches and the spectacular Mornington Peninsula National Park.
