MUSSEL ROCKS POINT

Public BBQ

A picnic area on the Esplanade at Cowes with one of the best outlooks on Phillip Island, facing the beach with the jetty off to the right. The barbecue rotunda is kept in genuinely pristine condition and holds three cooktops with benches, though it is common to find only one of them working. Picnic benches sit on well-kept grass under aged pines, some of them wheelchair accessible, with two drinking and refill stations, sorted rubbish bins and adequate unsealed parking. Several sets of steps lead down to a calm, shallow beach. It is the one picnic spot here that will shelter you from the wind, which matters on this coast. There are no toilets on site - the nearest are about 250 metres away - and only a single rinsing shower.
