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.
