Being situated at the head of Port Phillip Bay, the beaches of suburban Melbourne are all bay beaches. As the bay is a large, deeply indented and almost landlocked expanse of water extending northward from Bass Strait, the beaches are calm, the sand is clean and the water rarely polluted thanks to tidal movements in the bay.
If surf beaches are more to your liking, there are plenty of good ones up and down the coast beyond the outskirts of Melbourne. These beaches are found on the ocean sides of the two peninsulas that surround the southern waters of the bay – the Mornington and Bellarine peninsulas.
St Kilda
One of the most popular of the Port Phillip Bay beaches. Wide, sandy beach suitable for swimming and a host of other activities. St Kilda pier is a favourite for promenading. Kiosk/café, excellent city skyline views and fabulous sunsets. Ferry service to Williamstown, Southbank. Marina, extensive boating facilities, including ramps. Nearby reserves with picnic, barbecue and play facilities. Bicycle, walking, blading path. St Kilda Life Saving Club patrols.
