Dromana is a seaside suburb on the Mornington Peninsula in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, 57 km south of Melbourne's Central Business District, located within the Shire of Mornington Peninsula local government area. Dromana recorded a population of 6,626 at the 2021 census.
It is believed that the name Dromana is of Irish origin and that it came about from the influx of gold prospectors in the late 1830s. There is a Dromana (Irish: Drom Eanaigh) on the tidal section of the River Blackwater, near Cappoquin, County Waterford in Ireland, and this is the most likely origin of the name.
