Rosebud and McCrae Bay Trail

Walk Difficulty This walk starts near the intersection of Point Nepean Road and La Trobe Parade, on the southern end of the Dromana foreshore.
At the end of the camping area, the path goes though the boat ramp parking, and around the 'Anthony's Nose' headland which is a popular fishing location. The path winds through the camping sites of the foreshore before heading past the village of McCrae with its lighthouse and the McCrae Yacht Squadron.
Through more campsites under the mature Coastal Banksia trees and along onto the gravelled paths of the foreshore camping areas of Rosebud. Past the Rosebud Pier with its wonderful kids playground opposite Jetty Road and passing through the sheltered Rosebud Foreshore with beautiful shell-covered stretches of beach. Opposite are many shops and cafes of Rosebud. This section finishes at Chinamans Creek, Capel Sound.

This walk is on a shared pathway for walkers and cyclists that is part of the picturesque 30km Mornington Peninsula Bay Trail along the Port Phillip coast from Safety Beach to Portsea.
