Rye Ocean Beach - coastal hike

Rye is a coastal district on the Mormington Peninsula, about 70 km SE of Melbourne.

It is suburban-like, marked by high-density residential and commercial development.

Rye Ocean Beach faces Bass Strait, within the Mornington Peninsula National Park.

I visited this marvellous beach on Saturday November 6, 2010, for a 4 km (return) coastal hike towards Sorrento Ocean Beach.

The photos show the scenery, glorious coastal views, and surfing action!
