Cape Schanck

Cape Schank is a rugged point on the Mornington Peninsula, about an hours drive along the Peninsula Link from Melbourne.

It was once home to the telegraph link to Tasmania, where now there is one of many ocean lookouts, and continues to be home to an operational lighthouse.

Several walking tracks medium 1km return down to the beach on a boardwalk.

The view will simply take you breath away…

…so make sure to climb the stairs down the deck…

…all the way to the beach.
