THIS Summer School Holidays, Port Phillip Ferries is inviting the community to explore Portarlington and Geelong with their special short course one-hour cruises.

From December 28 to February 5, the local ferry franchise will be running one hour summer discovery rides which will operate from Wednesday to Sunday at Portarlington Pier and Saturday and Sunday at Cunningham Pier in Geelong, allowing passengers to see Portarlington and Geelong form a different perspective.

Aboard the range of 35m start-of-art catamaran ferries, locals and those visiting the area will have the chance to sit back and relax in multiple indoor and outdoor seating areas, access onboard Wi-Fi and charging stations and even sneak in a few beverages at the licensed cafe as they experience the beauty of the sea, while enjoying some audio/video onboard commentary, and chill-out music.

The ferry will provide easy access for all, via boarding ramps, comfortably accommodating people in wheelchairs, on mobility scooters or those with prams.

To sweeten the deal, Port Phillip Ferries will let children between the age of 4 and 16 ride free.

The Portarlington loop service will depart at 2:30pm, returning at 3:30pm every Wednesday to Sunday at the Portarlington Pier.

The Geelong service will depart Cunningham Pier at 2:30pm and also return at 3:30pm (available on Saturday and Sunday).

Bookings are essential, and boarding will open 20 minutes before departure and close 3 minutes prior.
