Directions

A long, open stretch of sandy beach at the southern end of Port Phillip Bay that is popular with locals for its reliable surf-style conditions, wide foreshore, and uncrowded feel compared to inner-bay beaches. The beach is patrolled in summer and backed by a pleasant reserve with picnic facilities. It is about an hour from the CBD by train, which keeps the crowds manageable even on hot days.
