With Aspendale Beach at your doorstep, you can explore a string of stunning coastline stretching from Edithvale and Chelsea, through to the lively foreshore at Mordialloc and the wide, open beaches of Carrum.

Heading north, discover the calm, scenic stretches of Parkdale and Mentone, the striking red cliffs of Black Rock, and the quiet coastal charm of Beaumaris. Continue along to Sandringham, Hampton and the iconic bathing boxes and golden sands of Brighton — each offering its own unique take on Melbourne’s relaxed beachside lifestyle.
