9.30am Daily

Trip Overview

Experience the Mornington Peninsula with the locals, as we uncover the rugged charm, iconic landmarks, and natural beauty of Victoria’s southern coastline on a relaxed, small-group tour departing from the Peninsula.

Your day begins with pickup from your Mornington Peninsula accommodation, followed by a short guided walk to the panoramic lookout at Arthur’s Seat, offering sweeping views over Port Phillip Bay.

Next, we visit Blairgowrie to admire the Peninsula’s famous beach boxes, before heading to the dramatic clifftops of Cape Schanck Lighthouse Reserve for a scenic coastal walk overlooking the wild Southern Ocean.

Continue to Point Nepean National Park, a site steeped in Australia’s military and maritime history. Here, you can explore historic forts, tunnels, and the old quarantine station on foot, or choose to upgrade with a push bike or e-bike hire for a more active experience.
