Abstract

Port Phillip Bay (also commonly referred to as Port Phillip) is a large bay in Victoria, Australia. It is an urban waterway as it drains Melbourne. The bay has a narrow entrance, where tidal velocities are high. Port Phillip was formed about 6,000years ago. Aborigines had lived in the area for tens of thousands of years. Europeans first arrived in the area in 1802. The bay has a temperate climate.
