Very nice. Was clean when I was there. Friendly people. Single gate entry rather than a double gate so you a reliant on people coming and going to make sure they don't let any dogs out

This is the absolute best park if you have dogs, especially energetic dogs! So much space for them to run around and usually plenty of other dogs around to play with. There's also two playgrounds, toilets, undercover BBQ area, skatepark and pond!

Amazing. So much water!







I love it when I find hidden treasure.










Área em Brighton com as famosas “vacas box” em frente à Praia.
A praia é muito tranquila e é possível chegar da parte central de Melhourne até Brighton Beach.
É necessário fazer 2 transfer para chegar aqui.
Da estação de metrô até ponto onde fica os boxs , é necessário caminhar por 20 minutos. Não ponto de ônibus 🚏 próximo .
Os locais pra comprar bebida e comida ficam distante da praia , onde o mar é bem tranquilo , e bem deserta. Foi apenas 30 minutos pra se conhecer , pois tinha que voltar pro navio.
Mas valeu a experiência

Just love it. We used to leave in Brighton and it’s my place to recharge and relax. Love to walk barefoot, collect shells or just read a book and listen to the little waves. If it’s superhot in summer you just cross the road and at the beach the air is fresh.





























A beautiful walk along the bay. A few good places to eat and drink on the walk



This was a bucket list thing for my wife. Good spot to watch the sunset. The colourful little houses were a delightful sight to see.











Nice walk from Baths past all the lovely houses, obvious to spot the original ones as they're not as imposing as their neighbours. Very popular on a Sunday afternoon, lots of walkers, cyclists and dogs. Good city views too.

There today for 10k charity walk. Bizarrely don't think I'd ever really walked around this park, just driven past it multiple times. Anyway lots of beautiful greenery like all Melbourne parks have and the obligatory public art.

Lovely trail to exercise as well as take in fresh air. Lots of parking spread along the area.

Great large off leash dog park! Water is right next to the playground. Available poo bags most days. Great dog owners and lovely pups. Dogs aren’t allowed off leash next to the lake.


Not the best water quality on this day, it happens after heavy rain.
Normally it is better than Ok.
Best to get away from the bay to find good clean water.

No beach here, but there's plenty of open space, parking and a great angle of the city to enjoy the sunset.

Amazing place for a walk.. nice playground too for kids







Amazing clean




There is some kind of construction going on with this spot when we are there late last year. There is no parking space on this spots. Good for photo shooting when its good weather.

This is a great viewing place to experience the sunset.

North road reserve is an amazing little park in a great area. There is a pier to the left with an amazing rock face to climb on. There is an amazing cafe and ice cream shop next to the park that is great. The play equipment is great for all ages and offers a shipwreck themed climbing frame. It is a great area to spend time during a sunny day.



The foreshore reserve is so fortunate to be facing the setting sun. Perfect for an afternoon by the bay.

Being coming to this spot for over 20 years. Still a great place for walks, swimming and even watching New Year's fireworks



















Great area with wonderful views. Parking nearby can be a bit pricy so it's generally a good idea to park at the train station and walk over. The park is well maintained and the beachside has good views of both the Melbourne skyline and all the ships in the bay. Good spot for a picnic or relaxing walk.

Extensive reserve along the coast at Brighton Beach. Acting as a buffer between the road and the beach itself, it provides space for parking, picnics and has public toilets. Views over Port Phillip Bay are awesome and a great spot to watch the sunset. There are limited safe places to cross Beach Rd / Esplanade, your best bet is to use the lights at the South Rd intersection near Brighton Beach station.

Great coffee, close to the beach. Lovely Park with seating under the trees. Playground and restrooms. Beautiful walking tracks.

Temporarily fully fenced which is good and there is water but it is tiny. This is because the oval is being renovated. Grumpy granny with her unsocialized poodle mix breed very haughty and unwelcoming, would be better off teaching her grandchildren to share public spaces.... because this is the only fully fenced off-leash in the whole of Bayside so it's for all types of dogs.


Went to show my Sydney friends the unique and popular Brighton Bathing Boxes and it was a beautiful day to remember. There’s construction going on so parking is limited but still accessible.

Omve they have completed the regen of the oval, it should be back to its best.
Have doubts on the contractor undertaking the correct drainage works required to stop the Nth are becoming a quagmire in Winter, and the Southern area Tree root protection works.

This tap is a welcome opportunity for cyclists, walkers and dogs to drink and fill water bottles. Well- maintained.





Lovely colourful bathing boxes and breezy sunny day!! Loved the feeling of fresh cool Breeze



Melbourne’s beautiful beach walk of long stretches of trails along the beach, with concrete walking trails close to the sand and water, dog unleash area, bathing area with cabins, and with car parking. Feel the calm sea and breeze



Awesome view of the bay.


Great views of the city and Brighton bathing boxes. The trail extends from Mordialloc to Port Melbourne, some of the bike path is shared with pedestrians so care needs to be taken particularly on weekends with fine weather as many people don't look as they enter the path. I ride on different parts of the path 4 - 5 times a week.





The new pavilion will be a good addition for tourists...having something to do and enjoy after taking pictures of the bayside boxes.


A relaxing beachside walk you won't regret










One of my favourite beach in Victoria Australia. It’s peaceful and beautiful. The sunset is amazing

Liked the playing pitch & the surroundings, especially kid-playing area. What I am concerned about is the proximity of the ground to nearby road (Whyte St.) & surrounding homes.







We had picnic on the cliff edge and it was so lovely. The views are gorgeous and you can see the city skyline from there in the distance. It can get pretty windy and cold so take a jacket. It seems like a great spot for wind surfing as there were plenty of people doing that. There's lots of parking and a few benches for seating.




No parking when we visited. This spot is often described as an iconic Melbourne location but it does not live up to its hype. The walk from the nearest available car park when we visited in Jan-23 was located more than 10mins walk away. Paid parking too...for this location it must be free. @council pls review the status of this location as a tourist venue.

Nice little Park for picnic, Walking and jogging. BBQ and play ground for childrens.

Fine walk. No shelter if the weather goes bad, and no way to get a car to half of the trail in an emergency. Barring any person with special needs is a totally fine walk.











Beautiful place to visit in brighton. Mostly crowded. Another must visit sea in Victoria. And you can take nice snaps near the bathing houses












A beautiful shaded area to start your trip down the Bay Trail.
There is ample ticket parking - not free and a bit expensive. You can use the Easypark App to make sure you get the right amount of time parking. Very simple to use.
Beautiful view. Not far from Dendy St and Brighton Beach and the Brighton Bathing Boxes.

Lovely little playground in quiet suburban street.

Fabulous park for those with young kids and a dog to exercise. Two playgrounds with toilet facilities and water fountains, large green spaces (2 ovals) to exercise the pooch. For older kids there's also a skate park on the other side of a very pretty lake. If dog owners were more vigilant about picking up after their pets the green space would make a nice sports space as the grass is very well kept. I think there were bbq and covered picnic spaces as well.

Amazing Huge open grass area, that is Great for Dogs. Quaint little ponds to admire the water life. Enclosed playground on one side, and open playground on the other. Great Skate park. This place has it All. (Only 1 toilet tho)
It's a worthy addition to any visit to Elwood. *8vD

Avid frisbee thrower - so the cricket disrupts that a bit (sucks for us, great for the cricket players).
Council taking the gates off (I forget the reason) makes keeping an eye on your dog a must.
Otherwise fantastic place to go and relax, generally quiet.

Sandy beach



























Nice view and very peaceful! We have met with heaps of local families. Also many dog walkers around. This place has amenities and it is recommended for families with their kids.










Good for walking day and night

Beautiful green park and one of the best off leash dog parks in the area! There's a few sports areas and a pleasant lake to walk around. It's quite busy during certain times, but the park is expansive so there's plenty of space. Brilliant park to take your dog, with lots of dogs to socialise and plenty of space to run around. Two gated children's playgrounds at each side of the park, wth plenty of benches and a toilet block.

Beautiful luscious Green Park. Quite big for a good run around and play a sport or with the dog. Dog friendly with poop bags around but didn't see any water bowls. Nice lake and a couple of kids playgrounds around.

📌Great place to do your daily exercise .
Always clean and safe .
Great views looking over the foreshore .
The only thing is parking is very expensive unless you have a Bayside parking permit. Just beware of parking inspectors they seem to find you when you're go to get a ticket . 🎫🚗
🚻There are toilets around .
Apart from that if you need to get yourself motivated it's a great place to be .

A great trail by the Bay. There’s a walking track and a cycling track. Great views of the city. Lots of places to stop and explore.

This used to be a great place for dogs as it was fully fenced but now some gates are missing. Also it is now football and cricket, the pavilion has been upgraded. Couldn't actually use the park as football was just about to start. Was much nicer 10 years ago.

Nice small park with open green space in Brighton.

Good little park for kick of the footy or cutting some laps.












Growing up means to get to know yourself better, be more honest with yourself and in most occasions, familiar with the things that make you feel good.
I love this trail. First-line to the water, many magical spots in the way. You can grab a coffee, walk, run, enjoy the view, meditate or just be. As always in amazing Melbourne, it is well maintained and free.

Great dog park with a fully fenced enclosure.
There were a few other dogs there today, all friendly and good for our dog to get to know. The fence around the oval is great as it guarantees that the dogs can't get onto the roads.

The only dog park in middle Brighton. Initially I thought it was a good fenced area until my dog ran out of the gate, which is the only open gap of the fence, because there werr people playing basketball outside attracted my puppy to the other side.
Watch out and be carefully about the gap!
There can be some big dogs bullying small dogs which is hard to control.
Council should make some effort to close the opening of the fence and include a small dog area just like The Wedge dog park in Caulfield.
Otherwise there isn’t any good place for small dog in this area.

People and Dog FRIENDLY TOILETS 10/10 good VIBE

Brilliant local park for children and families. Big multi-purpose field where children's sports (typically cricket & football) are played, alongside bbq facilities and a basic jungle gym with swings.

Great place to take your fur babies to socialise with others. There is a big bulldog group that generally heads down there on a Saturday morning around 10am. The only real issues with the park is the cricket teams that seem to be taking over and the lack of bins available around the park. Other than that the place is perfect.

Reminds me of still being at school and of kicking the soccer ball round with friends

Love this park. The white picketed cricket/footy oval turns into the best dog park in Brighton ... lots and lots of friendly dogs and even friendlier owners, beautiful surface and lots of parking. Kids can play on small basketball court or on the slides etc. This is the best place to bring your 4 legged friend for a run and a catch up with the other canine characters in the area. Highly recommended!!
