Best places: Beach pavillions in Doncaster, Australia

👍👍 I love Seaford beach. One of my favourite beaches. The pier is great for a walk. Dog friendly in off season. Perfect beach for all seasons, it never disappoints!

👍 Aspendale is a stunning beach with sandbanks and shallows perfect for the kids. Colourful beach sheds, central public toilets which are adequate. The parking metre often isn't working. Tons of carparks right on the beach. I love taking the family here, it is definitely a favourite!

👍👍 Super impressive restaurant in an amazing location. Normally a great beach location means average experience, not here. A fantastic Basque influenced menu with superb service. An absolute must go.

👍👍 Cape Paterson bay beach is a very unique beach in Victoria. It has two caves, one big and one small. Very nice beach, came here in the afternoon and it wasn’t too hot because it was windy. The eagle nest is another unique aspect of this place, definitely a great spot for photos. But an underrated as...

👍👍 Mills are very pristine beach with no rocks unlike many beaches in Mornington, the beach boxes are beautiful the way they line shoreline , the view are always pleasing to the eye , it’s a lovely place sit , swim, paddle board, take as many photos as you want and leave only footprints please

👍👍 One of the best beach in the Mornington Peninsula and it's dog a dog friendly beach.

👍👍 Beautiful! Great place to see the sunset. Listen to the sound of the waves crashing. I probably wouldn't go for a swim here though, as it looks a bit dangerous! Was very quiet compared to the other side of the peninsula, although the crowd turned up for the magnificent sunset.

👍👍 For us, best stop along the Great Ocean Road for a chill moment or even a chill day. Great facility with lots of car spaces and big new toilet area. 2 mins down to the beach. Lots of areas to explore. Perfect to bring your family or pets for a quick swim/play in the swim holes area - pretty safe t...

👍👍 First time going here. Huge crowds, no hassles. Clean sand.

👍👍 Clean and shallow enough for safe family water play. Though carried home some ocean water bugs 🐛 found in swimming costumes but all is ok.

👍 I recently visited Carrum Beach and had an amazing time. The beach itself is beautiful, with soft white sand and clear blue water. The beach was not too crowded and had plenty of space for everyone to spread out and enjoy the sun and the sea. The beach is also patrolled by lifeguards which is a plus...

👍👍 This is a perfect family beach with shallow water and sandy shore. Young kids can go far and the depth of the water is still around knee of adults. I come here because you can see pipi shells and little fish. Great learning opportunities for kids to see and touch them in person. I’m sure you can’t...

👍👍 Beautiful family beach! There is something for everyone: shallow waters, great for swimming and SUP. Sand Dunes Kiosk offers the best burgers, coffee, and smoothies right on the beach. Great toilet/shower facilities are available, and ample car parking is found in the nearby streets.

Relaxed, light-filled Modern Australian restaurant with live music on weekends & seaside dining.

👍👍 Fisherman's Beach is the quieter of the beaches in Torquay - also known as Fisho's, by the locals. At one end you will find a boat ramp, the Salty Dog Cafe - great to grab a coffee or healthy snack from [see separate review] and Yellow Bluff [a cool looking cliff]. There is plenty of parking along t...

Sleek bar with an outdoor terrace decorated in blue and white nautical stripes, plus bay views.

👍👍 Beautiful family beach, the water not that clean but good for a splash on a hot day..
