St Pauls Beach

St Pauls Beach is a picturesque coastal location situated approximately 60km from the Melbourne CBD. The beach is known for its stunning views of the Southern Ocean, spectacular rock formations, and durable cliffs. The weather at St Pauls Beach can be quite changeable, with conditions varying from hour to hour. Despite this, the views remain fantastic, particularly between squalls. The beach is accessible via the Coppins Track, a natural trail that offers breathtaking views of the ragged coastline and underwater caves. This trail also leads to Sorrento, providing a scenic walk that is a popular attraction for visitors. Unfortunately, due to recent rock collapses, direct access to the beach is currently closed. However, the cliff-top walks and views of the ocean remain a worthwhile experience. St Pauls Beach is not easily accessible by public transport. The best way to get there is to drive, which takes about 1.5 hours from Melbourne. Alternatively, one can take a train to Frankston Station and then catch Bus Route 788. From the bus stop, it's about a 1km walk to the beach. Despite its proximity to urban areas, St Pauls Beach offers a tranquil escape. It is particularly quiet at the moment due to COVID-19 restrictions. The beach is suitable for all ages, offering a range of activities and natural attractions.
