Tankerton: Stony Point Boat Ramp - Stony Point Road - Western Port Bay
Stony Point Boat Ramp is best known within Victoria for providing access to the sheltered waters of Western Port Bay. It stands at Stony Point on the Mornington Peninsula, where broad tidal mudflats and low coastal vegetation shape the shoreline. Stony Point Road links the ramp with the peninsula’s inland communities, while nearby Stony Point railway station is the terminus of Melbourne’s Frankston line. The locality is also a departure point for passenger ferries to French Island, a largely undeveloped island in Western Port. Together, the ramp, rail terminus and ferry service make this a practical coastal transport point as well as a launch site for boating on the bay.

The state combines fertile northern plains, the Central Victorian Goldfields, the forested Great Dividing Range and a long southern coast. Bendigo and Ballarat grew rapidly during the gold rushes of the 1850s, while Melbourne developed into Victoria’s cultural and economic centre. Along the southwest, the Great Ocean Road follows a dramatic stretch of coastline, contrasting with the farmland and river country inland.
