Once a year, the ORCV runs an on-water tour from a large ferry looking at the navigation aids, tides, how to and which channels to use, radio protocols etc for a safe transit of the heads.The tour runs inside the bay but travels around the head's region and offers not only an educational experience but a great day on the water. learn more and book here https://www.orcv.org.au/training/rip-tour-of-port-phillip-heads
