A lovely low-wave beach, great for a swim and for kids. Rocky peor, nice view and plenty of parking, a kiosk and grass area.

The beach is nice, well-equipped, the water quality acceptable, the annoying side of this beach is the fragmentation of shells mixed with the not-so-fine sand, which is very annoying for the feet.

One of my favourite places in Melbourne. A good walk along the shores, sunset spots, a retired war ship which is turned into a museum, boat rides, food, drinks, good atmosphere! It has everything!

Good place

One of the truly gifted scenario by mother nature and there is dog place to go through and jacking and walking place to move around the beach and good for cycling too and there are some spots for beautiful photographs specially at the time of golden hour or sunset

11/10 - 8/2/20.

Still my favorite beach that’s close to home and easy to get too.

Nice beach to watch sunset. Some area of the beach has some small rocks and cause uncomfortable when walking in the water Always too busy during the summer and hard to get the parking

Amazing beach, no open showers, toilets are so messy and miles apart.

Very good beach near to the city and to watch the sunset!

Not a very big beach. But you can kinda see the city from there. Along the sea, there a few park. Nice area to spend half day to relax.

The beach is close to public transport and is perfect for little kids because the water is so shallow and so flat. There are plenty of playgrounds nearby and public toilets too.

Nice place for people who living in west of Melbourne.

Very clean and fantastic beach👌👌👌.

It is the most crowded beach and easy to reach by train or car from Melbourne city. The water is shallow and clean. There are many kids playgrounds nearby. There are public toilets also beside the restaurants on the beach. The beach offers spectacular views of the water. The locality is also nice. It is surely one of the best beaches and offers a lot of activities. It is ideal for a whole day picnic for families.

A great harbor town for family gatherings。The big boat port at the pier whether it is sunrise or sunset, it is so beautiful! Walking along the beach, feed the pigeons, visit the beautiful shopping street with historical memory, delicious Pizza , ice cream, the little sweetness satisfies the monotonous rhythm of life. On the return trip, we wave goodbye to the ocean-going ship anchored in the sea. Good bye, goodbye----

The best spot for sunset watching and photo taking. Walk along The Esplanade towards the dog off leash grass area for some great views, but really anywhere along The Esplanade is amazing. Get there before 8pm during Summer to watch the sun go down.

Beautiful beach, not crowded, great area for picnic and great time to spend your weekend. The toilets are a downside and the beach is the upside.

Love the walk along the beach,not happy that I can't bbq now at the park which is a shame as the park has now been restored and looks beautiful..

Beautiful beach with a good play area for the kids.

Nice for a quick swim with the family, can be busy so plan ahead!

Family friendly beach and feels relaxing when we visit around sunset time. One of the best beaches for watching the sunset.The esplanade is good for evening walks.There are benches along the walk path to be seated and experience the sunset. There are no shops/restaurants close to the beach, but a short walk will take you to the main road where you have some takeaway shops.

Love this beach, especially in winter, so the dog can have a run and swim

(Translated by Google) Good choice for relaxing and blowing (Original) 放鬆吹吹風的好選擇

Great views for sunset. Clean area and huge place for picnic also nearby bbq station. Has nearby playground for children

Amazing beach! Best in the West! Only Problem is the overcrowding is crazy! This beach reminds me of Los Angeles!

Very nice little beach, with nearby picnic tables and snacks/coffee. Walking distance from the railway station and botanical gardens. Dogs (when allowed) should be on leash, but aren't always in reality.

Great place for kids as there is no wave and very shallow water.

Love it

Absolutely gorgeous beach. Nice and cosy and family friendly.

Love this beach.. This photo is on rubbish bin..good one..🙂 Peace..✌️

Absolutely mesmerizing! A must-see for anyone visiting the area.

The water is a bit dirty and salty and there is sharp rocks on the seafloors make sure u dont step on them because i did, and i got injured in my leg. Anyway worth to try 💕

Nice sandy beach. Generally calm water, unless there is a southerly blowing.

Beautiful beach ⛱️ though the chips at the fish and chip rotunda surprised me as they seemed to come out of a packet and not be the chips I was craving.

Great beach, protected by sea walls, so no huge waves. Cafes and fish n chip shop by the beach too. Parking is paid, $5 per hour.

Probably one of the better beaches around this place. It's windy and the nearby park is hard to sit on with high winds, but the beach is where the most fun is.

The beach itself is great. However, parking is $5 per hour. You would think with all that money, the council would be able to keep the facilities clean. Not so. The $5 per hour is clearly a money making operation. If you want free parking and less crowds, head to Werribee South beach.

Nice place for a ride

Nice sandy beach. No waves at all. Water is calm and clean. Good place to visit with younger kids. Only 1 cafe/ kiosk near by. Make sure to bring your own food.

Williamstown beach is quite nice, generally always peaceful and enjoyable. The beach itself is relatively small, but it still offers a very nice open view. Compared to many beaches in Australia is obviously nothing special, but in Melbourne in Port Philip bay is definitely worth a look. You can explore a few things around the area as well.

A favourite! Best in the west

Nice beach in the west!

Nice peaceful spot. Good for a walk with a view. Summer time super busy but even now colder days still has a handful of people who a brave enough to go in for a swim. Or get together and go for a walk

Good place for summer

I love the views down near the pier. Looking out, you can see the city. So Beautiful 😍

Beautiful beach. Sunset view is amazing. Can spend their few hours easily. Must see.

Great place for a swim on them hot summer days and part of it is a Patrolled beach.

Beautiful and clean beach. Gorgeous blue waters. The ocean was nice and warm - perfect for a swim. I had a lovely time here.

The beach is great good to know it is accesable for anyone. Have a look at the photos mats provide flat surface and there is Saving Club nearby providing strolls designed for sand

Summer weekend is always popular for local but if you come in the early morning before 9am is the best time ! Beach is quiet , calm, clean and beautiful. I love this beach . But compare to 20 years ago, I can’t see much fish in the water or beautiful sea shells in the beach which is sad . There is nice botanic garden near beach for picnic or just chill out. Bbq facility , toilet & shower, cafe & restaurant , fish & chips shop at the beach . This is not dog free beach but there are some people walking with dogs with no leads , just be aware. It’s fun for snorkelling around rock area as well.

I like the quiet part of the beach

Very nice today ❤️🧡💛💚💙🖤

Nice and relaxing place to enjoy sunset views near to the city. Also a very nice back water and bushes walk up till the Altona beach.

I enjoyed the peaceful ambience of Williamstown Beach. It was a beautiful warm night, and it was busy. A lot of people out under their umbrellas and tents and enjoy the sun. It lifted everyone's spirits. Unfortunately, the beach smelt quite bad when we went, but we soon made our way to get some ice cream and enjoy the rest of what Williamstown had to offer.

Clean calm family friendly beach! Lovely in great weather. The place to be in the Melbourne summer!!

Love it there, nice and close too

Great beach and place to go relax with friends and family

Perfect beach, I loved it, I love the cafe around the beach, lots of parking bays but not free, still good. Thanks for making this beach great!

Really nice beach to spend quality time with your family

(Translated by Google) Comfortable beach, but with many seaweed on the shore, it becomes unpleasant for children. (Original) Cómoda playa, pero con muchas algas en la orilla, se hace desagradable para los niños.

Beautifull place something in Melbourne I love it. Evrything is perfect, parking, kids playground, toilets, good coffee shops, clean beach to swim family friendly place.

Amazing Beach, My Favourite in Melbourne! Beautiful Cafe and Reminds me of some L.A beaches

Cosy beach. West sideeee

its an amazing beach but very overcrowded the cafes close by are great! when anyone has the chance drop by its worth it

really nice beach in the west. more family friendly than st kilda

So amazing beach in Victoria. It’s a nice experience in a high summer day. We went our staff together and had a swimming session for our client as well as our some staff too Newly learned the information about Australian beach history and the people who death while swimming in Australia

One of my favourite beaches this side of Melbourne

A great Melbourne beach, bring change parking.

It's a nice place it seems granted I was there while the smoke from the bush fires were looming so I couldn't stay long. The prime minister should really do more to fix that instead of vacationing and procrastinating on his duties. That's the vibe I get from the locals

One of few beaches in inner Melbourne that doesn't have a major road attatched. as a local i know of numerous aspects of this beach that make it unique..but i will keep them to myself.

Loved it?

Beautiful and tranquil. Good for a walk or a run

Nice beach and nice place to relax.

It’s really beautiful beach. I love this beach

Nice place to hang out for everyone.

Great beach, but always remember to be Sun smart with the boys

Good beach to visit. There are possibilities for families to have good time here. There are some free parking along with ticket parking. Beach also have take away shop who serves the hot/cold drinks and fish/chips.

Williamstown Beach is located just south of the Williamstown Railway Station. It is also backed by the Esplanade, making it a very accessible beach. A foreshore reserve is located at the eastern end and contains the Anglers Club, the pier, a car park, a park and a picnic area.

Too crowded, dirty beach, water drainage out into the ocean puts me off even dipping into the water. Parking is $4.80 per hour, what a ripp. Sand is yellow brown and not that soft. I would recommend this beach. I’d only recommend this beach for local residents in western Melbourne looking for conscience.

Stunning

Not many people, amaizing if you want to rest of the city's strees

Beautiful views and shallow water. Nice and kids friendly

Too windy to enjoy this beach.

Awesome place to hang out for everyone.

We have been doing walks at Williamstown beach throughout lockdown when distance permits and it is a real gem! It’s clean and such a nice path to walk. You can grab a coffee in the town centre and walk around the trail.

A wonderful beach!

Nice clean beach. Bit too crowdy and windy.

Great beach

Not so good. There are so many sea beach in Australia which are better than this.

(Translated by Google) When I visited that beach it was a Sunday in December, in the afternoon and there were very few people on it. The day was cold and windy. I saw people on bicycles and walking dogs on a leash (Original) Cuando visité esa playa era un domingo de diciembre, en horas de la tarde y había muy pocas personas en ella. El día era frío y con viento. Vi gente en bicicleta y paseando perros con correa

Was empty when I visited once and filled with too many people when I went again. Coarse sand and pipe which leads to the sea, not sure why parents would allow their parents to play in the sea. Lovely rocks and walk along the promenade and dog park as long as the wind blows in a favourable direction.

Great beach

Australia has thousands of miles of pristine, clean beaches. This is not one of it. Not properly cleaned, and a bit overcrowded, this place could use an upgrade. I also noticed a lot of people parking there without paying parking fees.
