See Melbourne

With Summer less than 2 months away, now is a good time to plan a trip down to the Mornington Peninsula, specifically Sorrento. It has become a yearly event, heading down after Christmas when it is really busy. Sorrento has been a holiday destination for lots of Melburnians over the years, and trying to get accomodation in the peak season can get very hard (especially if you leave it late).

If your looking for a great beach holiday, Sorrento or Portsea is the place to be, you have all the beach along the bay to enjoy some nice calm water, or for the surfers and wave-riders, you can head over to the back beach. A sunny summer day brings out all the boys and their toys, speed boats, jet-skis and kite boards for those windy days.

Head out for a drink down at the packed Portsea Pub, or Sorrento Pub, meet a few new people, then (for all the youngens) head up to the Conti for a late night of partying. Early rise for a breakfast down the main street in Sorrento and you can really see why this area has become such a popular holiday area.

For those who haven’t booked anything like myself, you should get a few people together and rent a house from one of the holiday renting websites, one of which is Stayz.com.au.
