Best way to get to work in Melbourne from the Bellarine. Even offers a cheeky beer for the way home in the evening.

I just made the big sea change, having just moved to the region from Melbourne. Best way to travel to work back in Melbourne, it is relaxing, great community feel, you can grab a coffee in the morning and a wine at night. Living the dream...

This ferry is my new commute to work in the city 3 days a week. I am so impressed with the service, great staff, perfectly clean, always on time and this morning after commencing departure it went back in to let a passenger running late on board. Well done PPF!!

Have used the ferry several times now a love it. What a way to start the day leaving Portarlington with the sun rising across the water. Talked to some of the work commuters who can get a lot of work done while traveling. It's not crowded like the trains. Crew are always happy and helpful.
