Don't miss
Sorrento Back Beach
You must check this beautiful place out - if you walk out front out house, turn right, walk to end of road. You will find the cemetery at the end and to the left a path that will lead you to the top of the hill, this is the lookout over Sorrento back beach. Amazing. Either return the same way or take the path to the beach and walk up the hill to take you back the the Main Street, here you can walk home via the service rod on Melbourne road, then turn left onto Normanby.
