Seaspray Beach is a sweeping stretch of wild coastline along Victoria's famed Ninety Mile Beach in the Gippsland region. Facing Bass Strait, this powerful, untamed ocean beach offers a raw and humbling snorkeling experience far from the crowds. The shallow inshore waters near the patrolled surf zone provide calm pockets on good weather days, while the surrounding marine park teems with small reef fish and invertebrates hiding among the sandy-bottom seagrass beds.
