The very tip of The Mornington Peninsula- Has great scenic walks and views out to the ocean or across the bay, even over to Queenscliff. Great for a bbq or hike - plenty of things to do any see down here , you may even see an echidna or two along the way. There is also a bus - which beat to check their local website for times & cost.

It’s only a 45 min one way from Sorrento across the bay - although there isn’t a lot to do in Queenscliff itself, it’s simply nice to experience the journey, visit the town and see the old limestone building and town and the new shops and boat marina close to the ferry

Portsea Estate is the local vineyard. It’s owned by a bro/ sist who also own 100 acres of the surrounding land. The cellar door is due to open soon but follow them on Insta however you can purchase any of their award winning wines from local bottle shops - the rose is my fav esp now it’s summer but can’t go past their Pinot in the Winter!

One of my fav cafe to eat on the Peninsula. I love the garden setting off the hustle and bustle of the Main Street. Great coffee and yummy food, often I’ve seen the staff pick the herbs from the garden to use in the kitchen- I mean how cool is that.
