Tulum Beach coastal hike, Balnarring

Tulum Beach is the long strip of sheltered coast linking Balnarring Beach with Somers Beach, Westernport Bay, 65 km south of Melbourne.

It has been a popular spot since the early 1900s, and is adjacent to the Merricks Creek Eastuary and Coolart Wetlands.

I visited Tulum Beach on Friday afternoon April 16, 2010, enjoying a 4 km beach hike.

There was plenty of canoe action on the Estuary, with students from a Geelong school learning boating skills as part of a nine-day excursion. They were accommodated at the nearby Somers Education Camp.
