http://www.visitmorningtonpeninsula.org/ is a pretty good start for figuring out other stuff to see and do on the Peninsula.

http://www.visitmorningtonpeninsula.org/ has an accommodation booking facility.

Mornington Peninsula Shire Foreshore Camping stretches along the bay side of the Peninsula. Sections 4 and 5 (McCrae) are fairly close to the Dromana start line. Shire moves the pages of their website around a bit, but that link should at least get you to their main site. Surf from there.

f you're really stuck, or you can deal with no-facilities camping then you can arrange to camp in the Mornington Peninsula National Park in the Greens Bush area at the Lightwood Creek campsite. (Google that.)

Heaps of Kangaroos there, one pit toilet, no potable water.  Luxury...

Phone Parks Victoria about this option 13 1963.

Public Transport Victoria  gives public transport options, but would require half a dozen changes between modes/vehicles, if used to get from Tullamarine airport to the Mornington Peninsula. (Forget it. It doesn't really work, but we always get asked the question, and some people need to arrive at this conclusion by themselves... so there's the info.)
