Mordialloc College is located on the virtually untouched beaches of Port Phillip Bay, southeast of Melbourne, in a quiet seaside suburb. Students can easily reach the city center in about 40 minutes by train, and bus service is also well-developed. There are numerous shopping options and restaurants in the area, and the large Southland Shopping Center is only about ten minutes away by train. The spacious school grounds border directly on parks and wetlands along Mordialloc Creek—a rare combination of proximity to the city, a beachfront location, and nature that shapes everyday school life.
