About the Business
Welcome to Bushrangers Bay, located at Cape Schanck in Australia. This establishment is a natural feature that offers visitors a unique and breathtaking experience.
Surrounded by the historic Cape Schanck lighthouse precinct, the ocean beaches of Sorrento and Portsea, and the rugged Flinders coastline, Bushrangers Bay is a haven for nature lovers and adventure seekers. The walking tracks through the nearby wildlife haven of Greens Bush provide opportunities to explore and discover the diverse flora and fauna of the area.
For those looking to enjoy a picnic in a peaceful setting, the Fingal Picnic Area, located two kilometers north of Cape Schanck, is the perfect spot. With electric barbecues, toilets, tables, and a ball games area, this area offers all the amenities needed for a relaxing day out. The nearby lookouts provide stunning views of basalt cliffs and Fingal Beach, which is exposed at low tide. Please note that the return walk to the beach involves a steep staircase, which may not be suitable for visitors with low mobility.
If you're seeking a sandy beach surrounded by basalt cliffs, look no further than the beautiful Bushrangers Bay. Accessed along Main Creek from the Boneo Road car park and picnic area, this section of the Two Bays Walking Track offers picturesque views and passes through shady Banksia groves. The crashing waves against the jagged rocks guarding the entrance to the bay create a dramatic and awe-inspiring atmosphere.
Sorrento Ocean Beach, located south of the town of Sorrento, is another popular destination for beach activities. From surfing and swimming to exploring the rockpools at low tide, there are plenty of opportunities for outdoor fun. The beach is patrolled on summer weekends and holidays, ensuring a safe experience for all visitors.

Reviews
"Great place to relax and chill, especially when it’s sunny. People come here to do picnic. Nice place to take photos. We love coming here during the weekends. Bit less crowded than Cape Schanck."
"Make sure to check the low- or high-tides, otherwise you may not be able to enjoy the rockpools"
"Really nice place. About 40-45 walk one way (not too difficult, you'll break a sweat though). Unfortunately on the day we went the tide was too high to walk over to the rock pools which we were looking forward to! Saw some friendly kangaroos grazing, and a fox chilling by the beach shore. Stairs right before the beach were the toughest part of the walk, they are a little bit steep but definitely worth the struggle."
"Nice coastal views. The bay itself is about a 3km walk from the bushrangers bay carpark. It took about 30min."
"One of the best beaches I have ever visited in Victoria. The walk is moderate with not so tough walks except for some steep steps at the end near the beach. The water is very clean but swimming is not recommended as it is dangerous. Beautiful experience, must visit !"
