Have you ever wondered what Melbourne's iconic Port Phillip Bay formed? The story is a fascinating one that involves a rift event under Melbourne that created The Port Phillip Sunklands. Before it was rifted, Port Phillip Bay's area was level with Melbourne and before the rift event, Melbourne and the surrounding areas were far more mountainous than they are today. This compilation starts with a look into the geological processes that formed the Sunklands before dividing into how it became the vibrant marine environment we know today.

Key Topics Covered:
- Geological evolution of Port Phillip Bay from an uplifted land to a sunken rift zone
- The Dam Event that occurred 8000 years ago
- Indigenous oral histories and their significance
- The rise of sea levels and breaching of the natural sandbar
- Impact on local ecosystems and human societies
