Cairns Bay
This is a beautiful and not so know walk on the Mornington Peninsula - it takes through a stand of revegetated native woodland before you arrive to the windswept cliffs.
Tip: if you walk down the beach and follow towards east at low tide, you can try one of the amazing natural pools for a splash!
Medium 1.2km return track on a dirt road through the bushes from the car park.
The waves constantly break over the reefs
The beach is surrounded by …
