Port Philip Bay

This seaside town is the entrance to Port Philip Bay and has a smorgasbord of inviting views including the magnificent lighthouse, the rip view, a long pier, an ocean back beach, high cliffs and a huge reef. I have completed many works in this area through all of the seasons and I love the place.
