Somerville: Tyabb(Westernport) Airport
Tyabb Airport combines the practical rhythm of general aviation with a semi-rural Mornington Peninsula setting in a way that reflects its position near Western Port. Located at Tyabb, south-east of Melbourne, the airfield serves light aircraft and aviation activity across the peninsula, amid a mosaic of open land, small settlements and tree-lined roads. Its runways and hangars form a distinctly low-rise counterpart to Melbourne's larger metropolitan airports. The Peninsula Aero Club is based at Tyabb Airport, giving the field an enduring role in local flying culture through pilot training and recreational aviation. Western Port, the broad tidal bay on the peninsula's eastern side, anchors the area geographically, while Somerville and Tyabb retain a more spacious character than the city beyond.

Among Australia’s regions, Victoria stands out for the remarkable variety packed between the Murray River and Bass Strait. 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.

Australia’s terrain extends from tropical rainforests in the northeast to arid plains in the interior, producing dramatic climatic contrasts. The Great Dividing Range follows much of the eastern coast, while the Great Barrier Reef lies off Queensland in the Coral Sea and Uluru rises from the central desert. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples maintain living cultures whose connections to Country long predate European settlement. In Sydney, the sail-like Opera House, completed in 1973, stands beside one of the world’s best-known harbours. Discover further points of interest through webcams located across Australia.
