The opposing ferry on its way to Sorrento, with The Rip (entrance to the Bay) in behind. Some of the fiercest currents in the world take place right here, it is one of the most treacherous waterways in the world but the only way into Melbourne.

This is the full view of Port Phillip Bay, looking inland. You could never see across the whole thing though. A small point of land on the west side is just visible at far left.

First view of Queenscliff, in the late afternoon. Queenscliff is an old seaside town and still a favourite day or weekend trip from Melbourne. The pilots who navigate ships through The Rip are based here and go shooting out in their little pilot boats a few times a day to meet up with the ships.
