About Mount Eliza

Mount Eliza is a seaside suburb on the Mornington Peninsula, about 42 km south-east of Melbourne's central business district. The area was named in 1836 after Eliza Elliott, who arrived at Port Phillip aboard the Stirling Castle. Its coastline includes beaches such as Canadian Bay, Daveys Bay and Half Moon Bay. The Ranelagh estate at the corner of Canadian Bay Road and Sunnyside Road was designed by Walter Burley Griffin.
