Between Shoreham and Flinders, the coast trends south-south-west and consists of steep, 20 to 40 m high, grassy bluffs. The bluffs are fronted by 100 m wide intertidal reef flats, with a series of narrow, sandy, high tide beaches. The first four beaches are all backed by private farmland, and public access is by foot along the shoreline. Pines Beach is 1.2 km long, backed by bluffs and fronted by the reef flat that narrows toward the centre. Beach 240 is similar, but only 400 m long; while 800 m long Musk or Manton Creek Beach has lower bluffs, with the creek crossing the centre of the beach. Mornington Park Beach has high bluffs, with an 80 m wide, low dune between the bluffs and the beach, and 300 m wide reef flats. read more
