You can catch a bus called the Gull service to Geelong, taxi would cost you around $100 or so. probably best to booka spot (03) 5222 4966, that will get you to town and Belmont is probably a $15 cab journey from there.

(beware 'safety' cameras...so behave)
then
across the Westgate bridge towards the CBD
and
get off at Montague ST exit and turn right into MontagueSt
continue to end..turn right (into City rd) and go to end
turn right..to Spirit of Tas terminal
btw
you can see the ship from the top of the bridge
