Sorrento

When it comes to waterfront, Sorrento takes the prize. Check out bayside or ocean coastlines – Sorrento spoils you like that.

Dive into the spellbinding waters off Sorrento or cruise the bay on a dolphin-spotting voyage. Wild swell surges against the back beach, tempting surfers and sea anglers. Heritage limestone buildings stand like giant sandcastles along the pretty promenade and house casual eateries and retailers. Browse boutiques, galleries and craft stores then kick back in cafés in this creative corner of the Mornington Peninsula.
