Mornington Peninsula National Park

Highlight • Natural

Mornington Peninsula National Park runs along a raw stretch of coastline where the land drops into the ocean in cliffs, headlands, and long, open beaches. Around Cape Schanck, tracks are easy to follow with parking and toilets nearby, but it quickly feels more remote as you move further along. You’ll be walking on a mix of boardwalk, sand, and stairs, often with strong coastal wind. The beaches might look inviting, but most are unpatrolled with rough conditions, so this area is better for walking than swimming.

Bushrangers Bay Walk

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Starting from the eastern car park at Cape Schanck Lighthouse, this out-and-back walk leads through coastal scrub before dropping to Bushrangers Bay, framed by basalt cliffs and a wide sandy beach shaped by Main Creek. Expect sandy, uneven paths and some steep stairs on the 5.4 kilometres return route (around 2 hours). At high tide, you may need to wade across the creek mouth. Facilities are limited at the trailhead. Stay on marked tracks to protect hooded plover habitat and be aware of snakes. Swimming is not recommended due to strong rips and currents.
