The Dromana neighbourhood is characterised by its relaxed and laid-back atmosphere, making it a popular destination for both tourists and locals. The area is known for its beautiful beaches, scenic coastline, and picturesque countryside.

Dromana is a quaint bayside village, nestled between Safety Beach and McCrae, and situated at the foot of Arthurs Seat; the highest point on the Mornington Peninsula.

Approximately a 1 hour 10 minute drive (85 kilometres) south of Melbourne, Dromana's foreshore reserve lines the coast and consists of grassy picnic areas, shelters, walking tracks and a small designated camping area. The calm, sandy beaches provide safe swimming and boating opportunities.

Points of interest include the Dromana Drive In, the Dromana Pier and the rocky cutting at the bluff known as Anthonys Nose where a boat ramp is situated. The nearby historic 2 acre Heronswood property overlooks the bay.

In the heart of the neighbourhood, you'll find the Dromana shopping precinct, which features a range of boutique shops, cafes, and restaurants. There are also a number of local markets held regularly in the area, offering fresh produce and handmade goods.

For outdoor enthusiasts, the nearby Arthur's Seat State Park offers hiking trails with stunning views of the coastline and surrounding countryside. The area is also popular for fishing, boating, and other water sports, with a number of boat ramps and jetties located along the coastline.

Overall, the Dromana neighbourhood is a peaceful and welcoming community with plenty of natural beauty and recreational activities to enjoy.
