Point Nepean is truly one of Victoria's beautiful natural landscapes. A special place with so much to see and discover. Its rich history has played an important role in shaping the early settlement, quarantine and defence of Victoria.
The park is located at the very tip of the Mornington Peninsula, with outstanding coastal scenery and panoramic views of Bass Strait, the Rip and Port Phillip Bay.
We boarded a tractor pull from the visitor's site.
We disembarked once we reached the fort and for one hour were able to explore the military forts and tunnels.
We saw the historic Quarantine Station,
then viewed the memorial where Prime Minister Harold Holt went missing while swimming,
Then we got hungry so we drove back to Sorrento to the Continental Hotel for lunch and I had to add these pictures as it seems all we do is think about food and really how great does this look!
....this one was a Japanese Hotpot....
...mine was the swordfish with a delicious chutney made with olives, eggplant, peppers, onions and mushrooms....
The walls were covered in these wonderful paintings all for sale by local artists.
The atmosphere was terrific and the food 10/10. I would highly recommend stopping if ever you find yourself driving in the area. Tomorrow is laundry day and then we are headed for Sydney for 4 days...we need to get up at 4am because our flight leaves at 7:30am.
