Werribee South Beach…
Aerial view of the water after a flash storm. Werribee South Beach in Melbourne, Victoria 3030, Australia.
Wow at the colour contrast effect after a storm! Does anyone know what causes this effect? I was thinking its too orange for mud.
These were taken at the eastern end of Werribee South Beach in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Just before you get to Wyndham Harbour. This area is a picturesque curve of east facing coastline that sweeps north, from the break water at Wyndham Harbour, to the mouth of the Werribee River.
Regularly monitored by Surf Lifeguards, this 1.2km length of beach is an excellent destination for a family day out. Not least because it has something for everyone and is a good walk for dogs.
A great place to watch the sunset, Werribee South Beach is great for sailing, boating, windsurfing, and kayaking.
Swimming is considered safe here, at the east end of the beach during mid to high tide. Public toilets are available, at each end of the beach as well as eateries (more selection at Wyndham Harbour)
You can fish at the nearby fishing platform (which is part of the breakwater) take photos or search for pretty shells, on shelly sand which often extends up to 300 metres wide during low tide.
If you're wanting a quieter area, you can come here. There are a few parking spots, but not alot. This is where I come for great landscape and scenic shots, sans people! The eastern part of this beach pretty much starts after the 'busy area' on your way to Wyndham Harbour.
