Here
is
my
review
of
Port
Melbourne
Beach
-
cross-posted
to
TripAdvisor
and
Facebook.
Port
Melbourne
Beach
is
a
safe
and
clean
beach,
popular
with
locals
and
tourists
alike.
It
is
sandwiched
between
New
Beach
and
South
Melbourne
Beach.
The
Port
Of
Melbourne
can
be
seen
from
here
as
well
as
the
West
Gate
Bridge.
Station
and
Princes
Piers
are
within
walking
distance,
and
the
Spirit
of
Tasmania
docks
in
this
area
too.
Parking
is
found
along
the
foreshore
and
nearby
streets
-
be
advised
check
for
permit
zones
[can't
park
there]
and
car
park
pay
stations
[may
need
an
app,
credit
card
or
coins].
There
is
a
tram
stop
in
the
vicinity
of
this
area
-
Number
one.
It
is
the
perfect
place
for
beach
tennis,
exercise,
photography
and
swimming.
It
is
family-friendly,
and
parts
of
the
beach
allow
dogs
off
the
leash
certain
time
of
the
year,
so
be
sure
to
check
'Maps
Melbourne'
or
signage
as
you
enter.
There
are
plenty
of
benches
to
sit
on,
small
rotundas
to
shelter
under
or
watch
the
ferry
come
in/leave
plus
small
cafes
scattered
along
the
foreshore.
Recommended
items
to
bring
if
swimming
-
towel,
hat,
flip
flops,
insect
repellent
and
sunscreen.
