I believe it is at the same dock that the ferry to Hobart leaves from. It looks like a fairly long walk to the city center but one of the trams goes from right outside the pier directly to the city center. A day pass on the trams is pretty inexpensive (<$10)
In Melbourne , you dock at Station Pier.
As Lauri says , at the end of the pier is the tram.."light rail" into the city...
Staff will be on hand in the terminal as you disembark to guide you. Melbourne is a very easy City to get around in.
Once in the city there is a free City loop, on the tram, and it can be a really fun day , doing your own thing.
Just remember to note the No. of the tram to catch back , and get back with some time to spare.
The visitors centre is in Federation Square
