Melbourne

Sandridge Beach

Quiet inner city beach

The Boulevard
Port Melbourne
Melbourne, VIC 3207

Nearest Train: Tram 109

Sandridge is perhaps the most tranquil of Melbourne's inner city beaches. Perhaps its location, directly adjacent to an industrial site, puts potential swimmers off its calm and shallow waters. However, this may be changing with the Beacon Cove development turning the surrounding area into a glossily surreal housing estate, and with council projects underway to improve the beach. The area already features a playground for children, a barbeque, a surf club and a strip of parkland, but make sure you bring refreshments because there is nowhere to buy them within a 15 minute walk! Gay men looking for more than a suntan favor the secluded northern section of the beach. As is usual for beaches in the city of Port Phillip, dogs are banned from Nov to Apr.
