Only an hour from Melbourne, the peninsula offers everything from breathtaking beaches and historical national parks to vineyards and hot springs.
Travel to the tip of the peninsula to visit the seaside town of Portsea, with its famous colored bathing boxes, and Point Nepean, with its remarkable military history and spectacular views of Bass Straight.
