The rider of the motorcycle, a 27-year-old French Island man, died at the scene.
The driver of the minibus, and three other passengers, were not injured in the crash.
Police believe the motorcycle was travelling east along Tankerton Road on a left-hand bend when it collided with the minibus travelling in the opposition direction.
The crash occurred at about 4.20pm on Sunday.
A Victoria Police spokesman said the driver of the bus, a 26-year-old man from Warneet, stopped at the scene.
"The investigation into the cause of the collision is ongoing," Leading Senior Constable Paul Turner said.
The death brings the 2017 state road toll to 84, six less than the same time last year.
