Elwood beach has to be my favourite metropolitan Beach here in Melbourne. Great view of the Bay and great view of the CBD and sunset. You also get some decent dining places in this area. Perfect for a weekend walk!!! Highly recommend Elwood beach to any newcomes to Melbourne!!!

One of Melbourne's nicest. Great line of sight to the city. The beach is nice. Be wise and check water quality, especially if there's been a recent downpour.

Brighton Road/Nepean Highway, right near the intersection of Glenhuntly & Hotham St. Very odd building, let by Agents but "managed" by Owner. The flats were in desperate need of renovation as were the garages which were in very bad shape & barely big enough to store a mid-size car. Property adjoined the Gardenvale Hotel with it's bottleshop exiting right next to the driveway... peace & quiet? Negative - owner attending every other week, pottering around & disturbing residents. If you're contemplating renting in the area, think twice before renting this property!

Sweet spot for clear and bright photos 🌞 +1 🌟 Massive parking space. +1 🌟 An awesome location. +1 🌟 Clear water -1 🌟 Congested road to get in and out of above said massive parking space. -1 🌟 Need of more toilets or perhaps dedicated changing rooms to take pressure off the toilets.

Every day it looks new and different so greatful to live near the beach

Lovely beach. Great parking space (paid), coffee and ice cream truck, restaurants, toilets and so much sand for kids to have fun. Also have biking tracks. Place for people who love crowd. The sunsets are awesome there.

Elwood beach is one my favourite beaches here in Melbourne. Very clean and quiet place. Great view of the Bay and great view of the CBD and sunset. 🌇 You also get some decent dining places in this area. Perfect for an evening walk!!! Highly recommend Elwood beach to any newcomes to Melbourne!!! P.S - Lot of dog walkers.

Great beach with a hill that has a view of the city and the bay and Brighton beach to the other side. The beach is also nice for having a swim and sometimes has a gelati van parked there too. There’s a water tap to wash the sand off your feet too if you need it.

Lovely and calm beach, great for family and weak swimmers. There are taps for washing off after your swim.

One of the less crowded beaches of Melbourne but has one of the best skylines of the city you would see. You ll always find an ice-cream truck here! Go Enjoy.

Lovely and quiet beach. Highly recommended. You would become a regular visitor after your first visit. The sunset is spectacular from here. Biking tracks are good. Few mins walk takes you to kids play area with zip line flying fox. Let's praise all this is free of cost.

Walking is very pleasant here

Beautiful beach, for viewing those stunning summer sunsets.

Lovely stretch of beach a short tram ride out of the city

Best beach for evening view

Best place to catch up with friends, eat and see the sunset.

This is a very beautiful beach in Melbourne. Although it is not a large beach, it is far less famous than the St. Kilda Beach or the Brighton Beach Boxes, and it is further away from the city centre than the St. Kilda Beach, I love its more cosy atmosphere as this beach is less commercialized. I can’t see any stalls or shop at the beach when I visited the beach in early May. I just sat on the beach, listened to the waves and enjoyed a wonderful sunset on 6/5/2018.

Well maintained beach which makes it ideal for families. The waves aren't too big at Elwood beach which again makes it ideal for families with kids. There is a walkway all along the beach front, you can also water out onto the warfs. Not much in the way of food at the beach. But there are plenty of cafes within a 5-10mins drive of the beach.

Just a perfect nice beach to lay back enjoy the views or go for a swim with the family friends there's restaurants ice cream nice area to just sit down and cool off. If I could recommend something bathrooms are really bad and need to be sorted as we live in a country that should be able to afford to fix or rebuild.

Sands are rough. Very busy when the weather is nice. The water is not that clear. We found broken glass on the beach closer to the water.

This beautiful natural scene is for EVERYONE to sooth your mind/ heart/ soul in FREE THERAPY /in any form of function. W E L C O M E T O M E L B O U R N E Must come here to have an invisible stamp on your life journey book😉😉😉 HO HO HO Merry YR23 Xmas

Beautiful sand, clean beach and sun.

Love Elwood Beach! A great place to relax, leisure walk or for a quick swim. Offers a couple of walking tracks right along the beach, amazing views to see.

The car park is everyone-for-themselves, Mad Max-esque and VERY poorly planned. Get the train to Brighton instead.

One of my favorite beach in Melbourne. Beautiful view and perfect for cycling lovers.

A lovely beach with great walking track.

Great views and so close to the cbd!

Not a lot of sand near the water but the water is clear and good for swimming.

Soak up the sun, dip into the sea, enjoy the walks, savour BBQ with your family! What a beautiful place to be!!!

Family beach, perfect little secluded area, not much of free parking but paid parking is avail. Has toilets/showers, a few shops little expensive though.

The beach side of Elwood Beach is beautiful, clean, and fun. The beach goes on for miles, and you can experience soft sandy beach, or rocky beach where you can step from rock to rock and get as close to the waves as possible.

Not as busy compared to nearby popular beach in St Kilda. If you like your space and quiet beach day out, this is the best place. Water nice and cool and not much waves.

Beautiful walk and fresh salt water air. Magic 🪄

Beautiful beach and walk❤️❤️

Accessible 3-4 hour parking around beach area. Picnic areas and restroom closer to beach.

One of the best beaches in Melbourne. Nice path ways along the beach. We walked along the beach all the way to St. Kilda which was a beautiful walk specially in the evening. Best time to visit is the summer obviously. Parking is paid but free after 8pm.

Nice place

A very, very good beach, where you can swim, exercise, cycle, and roller skate nearby. There is a park and a children's amusement park just a short walk away. There are also shower facilities for swimming.

So relaxing to walk along. Friendly people, cute dogs and nice restaurants and cafes along the boardwalk. Always busy, so it feels safe!

Nice family beach but very hard to find parking in hot days. Took me 30 min to find a spot

Great

I usually come to this beach in the morning, really beautiful

Better than the st kilda beach

My favorite beach ever ,, it’s super clean and calm , and you can sea the CBD sky line easily

Had no idea the wife had been there. Would be nice if she told me what she did what I wasn't around

A wonderful beach. ?

Lovely beach

Yeah I love Elwood Beach ?. I spent time with a cup of coffee..

Great beach to hang out

There isn't much there

(Translated by Google) It is a large and wide beach. The sand is soft and the water quite clear, I could see a band of little fish around me. At first it felt very cold, but then I acclimated. As we went during the week there were not many people. As usual, in the road that borders it, people are jogging and cycling. Widely recommended. (Original) Es una Grande y amplia playa. La arena es suave y el agua bastante clara, podía ver una banda de pececillos que me rodeaban. al comienzo se sintió muy fría, pero luego me aclimaté. Como fuimos entre semana no había muchas personas. Como es usual, en la caminería que la bordea, se ven personas trotando y en bicicleta. Recomendada ampliamente.

Sand is a bit coarse ?

Loved this beach ? it was relaxing and beautiful! Day spent well with family ?‍?‍?

You should come the the litle hill next to Elwood garden. View from here to the city is beautiful.

One of the most gorgeous beaches around Melbourne in my opinion

Good

One of my favourite beach in Melbourne.

Great beach...kept very clean also..

Pleasant, clean beach with a surf lifesaving club and a dog friendly beach nearby.

Wonderful beach not to quiet but a nice place to relax

Nice beach in city

This beach was popular even tho we cant bring our dogs or dog grooming tools

Very pretty beach for a walk

(Translated by Google) Beautiful place (Original) Bellissimo posto

Great location for family and friends

Awsome place for an early morning walk

Good spot for sunset watching. Bit busy at times tho. Nice and clean

Nice and clean

Clean and peaceful place. Love to go here every afternoon, just love to walk while watching the sunset.

Good

Like point Ormond and good for walking, cycling or jogging 👟

Quieter than up the road at St. Kilda. 15min walk and you are in the action or go East and enjoy the scenery.

Beautiful sunsets and not too many jellyfish 😂

The sand is a bit odd. Many broken sheel. But nice beach close to the city

The best views and sunset

Long beach

Beautiful.

It's a nice well kept beach that's a quick walk from Elwoods main street.

Beautiful place to dip your ties in the eater.

My favourite sunset spot around my place.

Great spot to enjoy a warm summer day.

Went there on a windy day. Only thing I remember is the wind.

Perfect location to chill during summers. There are even lifeguards at this beach. Parking was paid parking but got it easily during busy weekend times too. It was close to the beach so could carry picnic basket from car to beach without any hassles.

Nice beach although a bit too crowded for our liking sometimes

Nice quiet beach, close to Melbourne city.

My goodness

Magnificent views

Not a hidden gem. But still an awesome spot. Nice. Clean. Good walk. Safe.

Really nice, calming beach if you’re looking for a stroll on the beach, there’s also a bike track if that’s what your prefer

Not as busy compared to nearby popular beach in St Kilda. If you like your space and quiet beach day out, this is the best place. Water nice and cool and not much waves.

If you are a tourist you, do not want to miss this,the amzing breeze is just breath taking,walking or ridding

Fantastic spot

What a perfect night to come out of lockdown to! Elwood Beach is always a great place to gather!

Beautiful beach. Nice pathways to walk.

Quiet beach just 15 minutes from Melbourne CBD

Pretty but smelly 🤢

Easy access. Great stretch of open beach with shallow calm water.

Great place for a walk.

Awesome

Clean. Lifeguards in place. Metered parking but it’s hard to find to the parking at busy times. Toilets really need some attention during the day. recommended

Parking always available at nearby streets. Shallow water and family-friendly/kids-friendly environment. A few minutes walk towards west to toilets. Clean beach. Drinking water and trash bins available nearby.

Great day for a.beach walk, though half of Melbourne seemed to be down there

Beach is a bit small great views not enough parking and the cost of parking is ridiculous

Beautiful for a walk, swim or some takeaway dinner while the sunsets. Dogs on lead only.

The beach was clean on the left side and the tide wasn't very high. The water is cold though at 5 to 7pm. There was algae on the right side near a thing that was man made. It might be poisonous though. It has a tap to wash your feet on the other side of the drinking tap near the front of the beach on the left side.

Nice beach but the parking is terrible.

Beautiful spot! Quiet and friendly place for a walk with your puppy 🐶.

Beautiful place. Peaceful walk right next to the beach on a well curated path

...Beaches are relaxing. Most people find these places a quiet and a sure way of enjoying the beauty of nature and if you are nature lover you will be grateful to the creator if you realize how majestic our our God is.

Good views of city

Quieter and cleaner than St Kilda beach Elwood is a good little beach near the city

A great beach to have as your local - clean and not too crowded during the week

great coastal walk with benches along the way but lots of litter on the beach both times i’ve been

Great family beach, safe for youngsters as the waves are not cr Azily wild.
