Great way to spend a day. Drive along Bay Road. Have a vanilla slice at Sorrento, get on a ferry and cross the bay  to Queenscliff. Back to Melbourne through Geelong

    Took the ferry from Sorento to Queenscliff in March the weather was superb we had dolphins following the boat . took the horse and cart from the ferry to town of Queenscliff. Lots of great places to eat great shops. I especially enjoyed the book barn in the old church in the main street. A really enjoyable day for children and adults.

    We wanted to avoid travelling through Melbourne, what a great way to do it! It was worth it to get up early and take the trip on sunrise. Spectacular!

    Coming from the western suburbs, it’s a great drive along the Nepean Hwy to Sorrento. Lunch at the Portsea Hotel, a drive to Point Nepean to take in the sights, then take the ferry to Queenscliff for afternoon tea. Back home along the Geelong Hwy - a great day out!!

    Great way to see both sides of the Bay. Staff and crew were most helpful and friendly. Stopped at the Ferry Beach Cafe at the Queenscliff Terminal for coffee. Brownies there are delicious and you get the best view of the Bay in Queenscliff. A truly enjoyable day out.

    excellent.. would deffinantly reccomend as a great holiday activity.. taking your bike makes for an easy way around at either side.. a good ride is from sorrento to the portsea pub. which offers a great lunch with even better views

    A leisurely trip on the ferry from Sorrento to Queenscliff to dine in one of the many delicious restaurants; even a romantic stay overnight.

    Fantastic smooth trip across water. Brilliant views along the coastline. Breath in the fresh sea air and feel very alive out on the deck, or relax inside in comfy chairs with a canteen to nourish yourself with an array of edible goodies or bring your own picnic!

    the view is amazing and the cruise is very comfortable. When you reach Sorrento as a destination there are nice bars/cafes and shops to visit. A great day trip which enables you to cover a lot of distance without being on the roads stuck in traffic.
