car ferry melbourne

Hunting a car ferry from Melbourne? The main one to Tassie is the Spirit of Tasmania, which now departs from Geelong to Devonport and takes about 10–11 hours overnight.

For a quick bay hop, Searoad Ferries runs cars between Queenscliff and Sorrento in roughly 40 minutes—handy if you’re skirting the city. Book ahead in holiday peaks, mind vehicle height/length limits, and budget for fares that change with size and season. In the CBD itself, there’s no roll‑on car ferry—just trams, great coffee, and a stern talking‑to from parking inspectors.
