Bells Beach

Reviewed By 619jeffry - Essendon, Australia

Bells Beach is a surf beach, best known for the annual Bells Beach Surf Classic. It's not really a paddling beach, it's more for surfers, who love Bells. The beach can be treacherous, don't take risks in the water unless you are a strong swimmer. Bells isn't all that great to look at, it's the surf that makes it famous.

Torquay Foreshore Play Park

Reviewed By DrGreyhound - City of Greater Geelong, Australia

Plenty of space, fun wooden structure to play chases or hide and seek. Lots of variety for young and old. Common strategy of parents is to bring along a picnic or lazy fish & chips then watch their children having fun from the provided tables and benches. Outdoor joy for all.

Torquay Front Beach

Reviewed By Synergydining - Melbourne, Australia

What a beautiful beach - at sunrise, sunset or any time in between. It is clean, staffed by life-savers so you know where to safely swim in the gorgeous surf, and play beach cricket at low tide!

Bremlea Beach Bancoora

Reviewed By jrtakesontheworld - Australia, null

Even though I have visited this area many times, Breamlea beach has always just been a dot on the map. We decided to take a detour on our way to Barwon Head and...wow. The beach is close to the ample carpark and there is a lookout on the way. Just a whole lot of blue: sky and water. The rocks looked a bit rugged but the sand was pristine. I counted one other person around.

Point Impossible Surf Beach

Surfing beach with a reef break that allows for gentle waves, good for novices, and a second reef break that delivers a little more excitement.

Fisherman's Beach

Reviewed By Swelltraveller67 - Melbourne, Australia

Fisherman's Beach is the quieter of the beaches in Torquay - also known as Fisho's, by the locals. At one end you will find a boat ramp, the Salty Dog Cafe - great to grab a coffee or healthy snack from [see separate review] and Yellow Bluff [a cool looking cliff]. There is plenty of parking along the beach- on street and parking bays. This beach varies in textures from almost a clean, blonde sand to sand mixed with debris from the tide. Many people use this beach to walk their dogs or do their daily exercise. If wanting a beach that you can let your dog roam free on all year round, try Cosy Corner. A perfect place for those with children who want to learn to swim and have a cricket/frisbee/volleyball game, build sandcastles or have a picnic. As this beach is calmer than others, it offers a broader range of sporting choices. You may wish to try some of these: SUP, swimming, paddleboard, kite surfing, kayaking, snorkelling, walking, bike riding on the paths along the shore, windsurfing, sailing, jet-skiing, jogging, running - you get the idea - endless possibilities! A fun, easily accessed and relaxing place for all!
