Portarlington Grand Hotel
Embrace bayside life in Portarlington
With a peaceful, laid-back atmosphere, Portarlington is the perfect place to enjoy a quieter pace of life. Wander down the Esplanade and enjoy freshly shucked mussels, plucked straight from Port Phillip Bay. Or visit bustling Newcombe Street with its blend of local boutiques and restaurants.
The recently restored Portarlington Grand Hotel harks back to an era when paddle steamers crossed Port Phillip Bay, bringing visitors to enjoy the seaside hamlet. Today, Port Phillip Ferries offer the same convenience, ferrying passengers between Portarlington Pier and Melbourne’s Docklands in just 1 hour 10 minutes. A short drive to Queenscliff provides access to car and passenger ferry services to Sorrento, opening the gateway to the Mornington Peninsula and its many attractions.

Stretching the coastline between Port Phillip Bay, Swan Bay and Bass Strait, it’s no wonder the region is loved by tourists and locals alike. Within minutes of Portarlington, explore the township of Queenscliff, with its rich maritime history, or spend the day at the beach in Point Lonsdale or Ocean Grove.
There are plenty of recreational activities around the Bellarine too, with swimming, snorkelling and fishing, or enjoy a scenic walk along the waters edge.
