Tea Tree Creek Bay - Flinders Coast




Tea Tree Creek Bay is a wonderful secluded cove on the Flinders coast, 90 km from Melbourne, in the Mornington Peninsula National Park.

It is about 3 km west of the town of Flinders, and is accessed by a 1 km foot-track and staircase from the Boneo Rd. A small car park is located at the start of the signposted track.

There are magnificent views looking south across the open ocean of Bass Strait, as well as the dramatic coastlines from the clifftop, in either direction, with waves breaking over large basalt rock formations.

I visited the Bay on Thursday afternoon October 8, 2009. I usually go down there every six months - this was the spring trip! I followed the beach track to East Point and beyond, then back to the staircase, then up to the top of West Bluff, a total of about 3 km.

The cliffs rise about 50 m from sea level.
