Walks
Balcombe Estuary Boardwalk Circuit - An easy 2.5 km return walk.
Two Bays Walking Trail - The longest continuous walking track on the Mornington Peninsula, from Dromana on Port Phillip Bay to Bushrangers Bay near Cape Schanck. If the full 26km walk isn't for you, you can enjoy smaller segments.
