St Andrews Beach is named after the backing holiday settlement and can be reached via a winding route through the houses and dunes. This terminates at a small car park in the dunes above the centre of the 2 km long beach. The Mornington Peninsula National Park runs in a strip between the houses and the beach.
Like all the beaches along this section, it is dominated by moderate to high waves, sand, reefs and rocks. St Andrews has rock along several hundred metres of the beach, with reefs also outcropping in the surf. Combined with the waves, which average 1.8 m, they produce several strong, permanent rips against the rocks and reefs.
Beach Length: 2km
