Exploring the Queenscliff Ferry Experience.
The Sorrento–Queenscliff ferry can make the journey to your Bellarine holiday part of the experience. It crosses Port Phillip Bay between the Mornington and Bellarine peninsulas, with travel options for vehicles, foot passengers and bicycles.
How long does the ferry take?
Searoad Ferries lists the crossing time as approximately 40 minutes. Allow additional time for check-in, boarding and travel to and from the terminals. Follow the arrival instructions supplied with your ferry booking.
Where can I find ferry times and prices?
Use the official Searoad Ferries website for the current timetable, fares, tickets and service alerts. Your fare depends on the travel option and passengers you select. Enter vehicle details carefully, including extra length or height where relevant.
Check travel alerts again before leaving, especially when weather may affect services. Book your preferred crossings ahead of busy periods and keep your booking confirmation handy.
Bringing a car or travelling on foot?
Choose based on the rest of your holiday. A car can be useful for luggage, group travel and trips to Bellarine wineries. If travelling on foot, organise transport between the terminal and your accommodation in advance, rather than assuming a transfer will be available when you arrive.
If you plan a day trip during your stay, check the return service before setting out. Leave time to enjoy the destination without rushing back to the terminal.
Arriving for a stay at Sagres
Sagres is a five-bedroom private holiday home in Queenscliff for up to 10 guests. Check-in is from 3:30 pm and checkout is by 10 am. Choose your ferry time around those arrangements; early access and luggage storage should not be assumed.
The house offers bay views, direct walking-track access to Nuns Beach, a European sauna and a wellness studio. Its private mineral pool is heated to 28°C from October to April. Review the house tour and floorplan and group accommodation FAQs before booking.
Make a weekend of Queenscliff
Use our Queenscliff weekend guide to plan a stay around the village, coast and time at the house. The dining guide helps with lunch or dinner plans, and our winter escape guide covers cooler-weather ideas.
