The '''Division of Flinders''' is an [[Divisions of the Australian House of Representatives|Australian Electoral Division]] in [[Victoria (Australia)|Victoria]]. The division is one of the [[List of Australian electorates contested at every election|original 65 divisions]] contested at the [[1901 Australian federal election|first federal election]]. It is named after [[Matthew Flinders]], the first man to circumnavigate Australia, and the person credited with giving Australia its name.

Originally a country seat south and east of [[Melbourne]], Flinders is now based on the outer southern suburbs on the [[Mornington Peninsula]], including [[Dromana, Victoria|Dromana]], [[Hastings, Victoria|Hastings]] and [[Portsea, Victoria|Portsea]]. Even though Melbourne's suburban growth has long since spilled onto the peninsula, Flinders is still counted as a rural seat.
