Discover Southern Port Philip Bay’s amazing history.  Learn about the area’s most recognisable landmarks through the exploration of Heritage sites such as the South Chanel Fort, The Southern Pile Light and The Quarantine Station via beach access.

The Bay offers the Photographer remarkable opportunities to capture that special image.  If you are into Nature, Wildlife, Landscape, Time lapse, Underwater or whatever type of photography you are in to Riptide can put you in the right place at the right time at the best price available.

Port Phillip Bay offers exceptional bird watching year round. Internationally significant numbers of migratory shorebirds visit each year between September and April. Popes Eye is one of the few sites where Australasian Gannets will breed and the resident species across the Bay and on Mud Islands provide a world class birding experience.

Riptide Charters has adopted the ethos of Fishcare Victoria.  These trips are for people wanting to appreciate and acquire knowledge of the piscatorial offerings of the bay and will take home an enlightened attitude towards fishing and hopefully some dinner.

Hire Riptide with a qualified Skipper, relax and enjoy the bay without the responsibility of watching the tides, weather and navigation.  Compare our rates with conventional boat hire.
