Rye Ocean Beach - coastal hike
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!

Rye Ocean Beach
The Rye Ocean Beach is about 90 km south of Melbourne, in the Mornington Peninsula National park.
It looks out to Bass Strait.
It is popular at all times of the year, with surfing when the waves are big.
I visited this beautiful stretch of coast on Sunday afternoon October 11, 2009, for a 6 km (return) beach hike west towards Dimmick's Beach.
The waves were good, and the coastal views towards Cape Schank were spectacular!
See all of the Photos of my visit, which include some of my "Candid Camera" images of the action along the coast!

St Andrew's Coastal Beach - Mornington Peninsula National Park
On Saturday March 28 2009 I went down to the Mornington Peninsula National Park, about 90 km SE of Melbourne, and did a 4 km (return) coastal walk between St Andrew's and Rye Ocean Beaches.
St Andrew's Ocean Beach is reached from Trueman's Rd, turning off at Sandy Rd - there is a car park and information board at the start of the foot-track.
The views are superb, extending SE to the Cape Schank Lighthouse, and NW towards Portsea.
The rock formations along this stretch of beach are somewhat unique, and surfing is popular.
Shipping was observed a few kms out in the main channel, heading towards Port Phillip Heads after passing Cape Schanck.
