Mornington Peninsula, Victoria
Mornington Peninsula lies south of Melbourne, Australia forming the eastern side of Port Phillip Bay. Mornington - The largest of the towns on the Mornington Peninsula, with one long main street leading down to the beach and pier. Mornington is a beachside town that is rapdily growing in response to the growing population around it and on the Peninula, but don’t shy away from it, it still has a wonderful atmosphere and good transport links (busses) out to the rest of the Peninusla. Cities: Dromana- The small coastal village of Dromana sits in a valley between Arthurs Seat and Mount Martha and with a beautful beach with brightly painted boat sheds lining the shore, its a pretty spot to spend a few days. Red Hill- With green rolling hills, amazing wineries, fresh produce and a popular community market this is rural Australia at its best. Sorrento- Sorrento is lucky to boast two very different yet equally interesting beaches. The Sorrento Ocean Beach is spectacular and dangerous while the bay beach is both calm and relaxing. Take your pick! Sorrento was also the site of Victoria's first official settlement in 1803. Portsea- Glitzy, ritzy Portea at the tip of the Peninsula is resident to some very expensive holiday homes and the iconic Portsea Pub that sits literally right on the forshore. From watching the sunset over a beer on the Pub terrace to catching some waves at Portsea backbeach you wont soon be bored! The Peninsula is at its very best and busiest during the summer months but don't disregard the winter months altogether either. Walking the beaches that line Bass Straight in the cold grey months of winter, and being witness to the drama of the oceans fury is an experience you wont soon forget. Just bring a jacket! That said, spending a warm summers evening with some fish and chips on the forshore watching the sun set with some friends is a great way to enjoy life.
