Big swell, big waves, and spectacular views to Cape Schank.
The 3 km return Hike was along the beach and back on the top of the sand dunes.

Gunnamatta Coastal Walk
The Gunnamatta Surf Beach is about 90 km south of Melbourne, in the Mornington Peninsula National Park.
I visited the Beach on March 21, 2009, on a 5 km (return) beachwalk to the southeast, reaching the rocks at the base of the rugged cliffs near Fingal.
The surf was up, with big waves, and the Surf Patrol was vigilant!
The main walking track from Gunamatta to Cape Schank follows the beach along the sand dunes, for about 1 km, where it then veers inland and continues along the cliff top, passing the turn-off to Fingal Beach.
The coastal views towards the Cape Schank Lighthouse were spectacular!
Note that there is an admission fee of $4.40 per car.
My Photos show the scenery, surf, dunes, fishing, swimmers, waves, beach and cliffs with some "candid camera" shots!

Gunnamatta Beach - scenic Coastal Walk
Gunnamatta Beach is a popular destination in the Mornington Peninsula National Park, about 80 km south of Melbourne.
I visited this magnificent ocean beach on February 22 2009, on a 4 km (return) coastal walk west to St Andrew's Beach.
The tide was out, exposing a vast array of rock pools.
The surf was up, with big waves!
The coastal vews were superb, with Cape Schank and the Lighthouse to the east, and the long sweeping beaches to Point Nepean to the west.
The Beach is at the end of Trueman's Rd, turn off from the Point Nepean Rd at Tootgarook.
An admission fee of $4.40 per car is charged for entry.
