Sorrento was the site of the first official European settlement of Victoria which was established by Lieutenant Colonel David Collins in 1803. The monument honoring this historic event was erected at Eastern Sister, which is located near the southeastern shore of the bay of Sorrento. There is an elevated coastal walkway leading to an information center and several gazebos that offer panoramic views of the beach and bay.

Sorrento Historical Park, located on Point Nepean Road overlooking the bay, is a lush oasis that was established in 1870. It features European trees, colorful gardens, extensive lawns, barbecue facilities, rotunda, children's playground and hiking trails. Panoramic views of Policemans Point, the neighboring beaches and across the bay can be enjoyed from the park that stretches up to the tops of the cliffs.

The main access point to the oceanic beach of Sorrento is the southern end of Ocean Beach Road. The coast here consists of stretches of sandy beach that back to sand dunes and rocky cliffs. In the main car park there is a cafe, the local surf lifeguard club and several hiking trails.
