Right beside the sparkling sea, Just over the road from friendly villages The Mornington Peninsula has some of Victoria’s most beautiful beaches, with white sandy bays, shallow waters for kids, top fishing spots and lots of aquatic activities. Best of all, three of these beaches are renowned in the caravan and camping world for their foreshore camping reserves and a wonderful sense of family and community spirit that goes back more than 70 years. The views of the water just a few metres away at Rosebud, Rye and Sorrento are million dollar – but the camping rates are very reasonable. The facilities are excellent (just bring your own tent or caravan), and right over the road are coastal villages with supermarkets, restaurants, cafes, sports and fishing gear suppliers and more. The reserves are very well managed and maintained by the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council, so you’re assured of quality camping. And if you come off-peak, you can book great-value camping packages. Making the most of your visit To plan your stay, check www.visitmorningtonpeninsula.org and order a copy of the Official Visitor Guide, call into the Mornington Peninsula Visitor Information Centre at 359B Point Nepean Road Dromana, Victoria For more information call 1800 804 009 or 03 5987 3078
