Searoad Ferries: Your Gateway Between the Bellarine and Mornington Peninsulas

Searoad Ferries offers a unique and convenient way to travel between the Bellarine and Mornington Peninsulas, bypassing a lengthy three-hour drive around Port Phillip Bay. Since 1987, Searoad Ferries has provided a reliable service for both vehicles and passengers, becoming an integral part of the local tourism and transport network. The 40-minute ferry crossing provides passengers with stunning views of the bay, golden beaches, rugged coastlines, and clifftop mansions. Keep an eye out for dolphins that often frolic alongside the ferries. The ferries themselves are well-equipped with viewing decks, comfortable lounges, and cafes serving coffee, wine, and beer. Searoad Ferries operates two ships, the MV Queenscliff and the MV Sorrento, providing hourly departures in each direction. The ferries are designed for easy drive-on/drive-off access for vehicles, making the journey seamless and stress-free. Foot passengers can also enjoy a relaxing trip, with easy access to the charming seaside villages of Queenscliff and Sorrento just a short walk from the terminals. Queenscliff, the northern terminal, is a historic maritime town with grand hotels, quaint shops, and beautiful churches. Explore the town's rich history at the Queenscliff Maritime Museum or take a stroll along the scenic foreshore.
