The Beaches

On your next Blairgowrie beachside retreat, you’ll be spoilt for choice. From rugged Back Beach to tranquil Bay, Blairgowrie stretches across a strip of the Mornington Peninsula between Sorrento and Rye.

Getting there: Take the St. Johns Wood walking track which ends in a fork, turn left and take the stairs down to the beach or continue along the walking track which will take you passed Pirate Bay Caves, Prickly Rocks, and Pearse’s Beach – approximately a 20 minute walk from Bridgewater Bay car park to Pearse’s Beach.
