St Kilda Beach

stkilda"

From St Kilda to Kings Cross is 13 hours on a bus, as Paul Kelly will reliably tell you.

Luckily for us, this classic Melbourne bathing spot is only a short trip from the city and offers good swimming and amenities.

The pier is a favourite spot for sunset strolls and you're never far from St Kilda's eating and drinking hot spots.

Public transport: Take the 3, 16 or 96 tram. It will take about half-an-hour from the city.

Safety rating: 3/10 (least hazardous)

Facilities: Toilets (including accessible), showers and there are food options nearby.

Parking: Very few options for parking, better to take the tram.

Sandridge, Port Melbourne, South Melbourne and Middle Park

These bayside beaches are some of the closest to the city for a quick dip after work.

Middle Park is popular spot for kitesurfing and beach volleyball while there are playgrounds nearby too.

Brighton

Brighton

You don't need to own one of the iconic bathing boxes to visit the ever-popular beaches at Brighton. Which is lucky, because they can sell for up to $260,000.

There are two main beaches here, separated by a foreshore reserve. The main beach is right in front of the train station.

barking

A long, popular beach backed by well-kept, grassy reserves. South-westerly winds can create waves big enough for surfing.

It's best to swim at the western end of the beach, where the surf club patrols and it is relatively shallow. It is more rocky at the Pavilion end of the beach.

Sandringham

barking

Great swimming, well-kept reserves and excellent walking and cycling tracks make Sandringham a perennial favourite for Melburnians looking to cool off.

There are two parts to the beach: a narrow, difficult to access southern half, and an easy access, well serviced and more popular northern half.

Public transport: Half an hour from the city on the Sandringham line. The train station is a short walk from the beach.

Safety rating: 4/10 (moderately hazardous)

Facilities: Toilets, showers, dressing sheds, barbecues and easy access to shops.

Altona beach

barking

This three-kilometre long, western suburbs beach is popular for its boat-free zone, which extends 200 metres east of the pier. Most facilities are close to the pier and surf club. It's best to swim at high tide, otherwise it can be a long wade to reach deep water.
