Portsea is the Mornington Peninsula's most westerly settlement. Situated approximately 1.5hrs from Melbourne, Portsea has been long described as the playground for Melbourne’s elite.
The end-of-the-road location and its cathedral-like canopy of trees sets the scene for million dollar mansions inhabited on weekends and holidays by Melbourne's rich and famous.
Portsea also borders the Point Nepean section of the Mornington Peninsula National Park where visitors can explore a fascinating labyrinth of tunnels and fortifications guarding Port Phillip heads since the 1880s.
Portsea offers golf courses, wineries, horseback riding, shopping, fishing, diving and many other water and recreational activities.
The Portsea Swim Classic, held by the local surf lifesaving club, attracts over 2000 competitors and is one of the largest events of its kind in Australia.
Ideal for a day, weekend or extended getaway, Portsea’s abundant beaches, world-class golf courses, friendly dolphins and network of national parks are there for everyone to enjoy. Dinner at the Portsea Hotel is a must.
