Breathe in the fresh country air and discover what the Mornington and Bellarine Peninsulas have to offer! First visit Geelong, take a stroll along the waterfront over before heading to Point Lonsdale Lighthouse and witness the famous 'Rip', a stretch of water that’s considered one of the most treacherous navigable passages in the world. Hop aboard Searoad Ferries where you'll marvel at the sights from the water while indulging in some delicious lunch! See Australia’s very own London Bridge at Portsea Beach; this viewpoint is situated on a sandstone cliff overlooking the waters. Next, visit Rocky Creek Strawberry Farm, where you can pick your own sweet strawberries (Nov-Apr). Finally, enjoy the colourful bathing boxes on the beachfront – the perfect end to a tour in beautiful Melbourne!
- Strawberry picking is included from November to April when in season
