Overview

Join BirdLife Bayside for an outing led by Peter McManamny to Shoreham Foreshore Reserve & Tyabb Bushland Reserve.

Bring lunch, afternoon tea and a folding chair. There are toilets in the Shoreham Foreshore Reserve and that will be our first stop (apart from birds on the way). We will be walking on unsealed roads, formed tracks and firm sand.

We will have lunch at the cars and then drive to Tyabb Bushland Reserve, Woods Road, Pearcedale, approximately a 30-35 minute drive. No toilets are available there. Walk will finish with afternoon tea. Enquiries: Peter on 0402 470 415.

Please wear suitable clothes and shoes for bushwalking, including a hat and sunscreen. Please note that outings are very rarely cancelled, but will be automatically cancelled on days of a Total Fire Ban or severe weather.

Getting There

Meet in the Fisher Street carpark (Melway map 256 H 8). From Frankston-Flinders Road (C777) turn left into Byrnes Road. Where Byrnes Road turns right, turn left into Proutt Webb Road and then immediately left into Marine Parade (unsealed). Follow Marine Parade past Blake Street and then turn right into Fisher Street.
After lunch we will drive to Tyabb Bushland Reserve, Woods Road, Pearcedale, approximately a 30-35 minute drive. Follow C777 back through Balnarring, Bittern and Hastings, turning right onto A780 (Western Port Highway/Dandenong-Hastings Road) at the big roundabout. Either left turn into South Boundary Road West from A780 and drive almost to end to turn left into Woods Road, or continue along A780 to the roundabout with the Baxter-Tooradin Road (C781), turn left and take first left into South Boundary Road West (hard left) and then right into Woods Road. Drive to the end of Woods Road (Melway map 140 B 8) and park along the sides of the road, ensuring you do not obstruct the residents.
