Carrum Beach

Park

👍 I recently visited Carrum Beach and had an amazing time. The beach itself is beautiful, with soft white sand and clear blue water.

Daveys Bay Beach

Beach pavillion

Black Rock Beach

Beach pavillion

👍👍 Absolutely love going to this beach with the pups. Dogs need to be leashed but I took it off for this photograph as it was such a good shot of Romeo. We love a cold day down here. Not a lot of people and secluded . Summer it fires right up as most beaches do and still has a great vibe .

Rosebud Beach

Public beach

👍👍 This is a perfect family beach with shallow water and sandy shore. Young kids can go far and the depth of the water is still around knee of adults. I come here because you can see pipi shells and little fish. Great learning opportunities for kids to see and touch them in person. I’m sure you can’t...

Shoreham Beach

Beach pavillion

👍👍 So beautiful. The water was warm, with little waves. I walked along the edge of the waves until I got to the rock pools. It's a lovely stretch of beach. Very calm. Lots of places to look around if the tide is out. There was a lot of seaweed though, but it'd be great for your garden!
