The Seaford Foreshore Reserve includes a 5 km coastal strip of parallel dunes with remnant indigenous coastal vegetation from Keast Park to Mile Bridge.
This includes 50 hectares of the finest Coast Banksia woodland in Melbourne, forming an important habitat for many birds and reptiles and shelters one of the best beaches on Port Phillip Bay.
A walking track extends the length of the Reserve.
Please make sure you keep off the dunes to help protect this fragile and beautiful area.
The foreshore was set aside for public use in 1873 and re-reserved in 1987 for the purposes of conservation and recreation. In 1909 a small pier with a large pipe was built to pump seawater into Kananook Creek to flush through the polluted waters. The pipe was dismantled in 1953 but the pier still remains, a relic of times gone by. The Friends of Seaford Foreshore worked in the reserve for many years regenerating and replanting indigenous species and removing environmental weeds.
