The western most settlement on Victoria 's scenic Mornington Peninsula , Portsea has become a popular holiday destination. Most of the holiday makers come during the summer months to escape the hussle and bussle of nearby Melbourne (100 km away).
Portsea has been described as "exclusive" and the "preferred holiday destination of Melbournes ' elite" however this sleepy little seaside town of 550 permanent residents have something for most tastes.
From the always lively "Portsea Pub", which has become an icon in its own rite, to the rugged windswept coast line, which feature the world famous "London Bridge" rock formation (no so much a bridge these days!), It's a great place to spend a couple of days resting and relaxing.
Portsea front beach is overlooked by the Portsea Hotel, and plays host to the rugged open ocean, ideal for surfing and the regular iron man competitions. Other events of note on the Portsea calandar include the Portse Pro-Am Classic, the Pier to Pub Swim, the Portsea Swim Classic, the Melbourne to Hobart and Melbourne to Davenport Yacht Races.
