Point Gellibrand Coastal Heritage Park is a new regional park that has been created to protect the cultural heritage values and coastal character of the area, while providing a range of visitor facilities and passive open space opportunities.
Take a walk along the foreshore and enjoy the view of Port Phillip Bay and the city of Melbourne. Have a picnic down by the water and enjoy the sea breeze or a barbecue at Quarry Picnic Area. Discover the history of the area, including Point Gellibrand's most significant landmark, the Timeball Tower.
Cycling along the Bay Trail that takes you around Port Phillip Bay is a popular activity. Try fishing, take your dog for a walk or explore the rocks at Shelly Beach. The south end of the Point Gellibrand Coastal Heritage Park has a playground as well as sheltered picnic tables, BBQ facilities, a fire place and clean toilets. There is also a baby changing facility and ample parking onsite.
Further information including maps can be found on the Parks Victoria website.
