Great little cafe to enjoy whilst the children play beachside
“Seaford is home to one of Port Phillip Bay's best hidden beach gems. With a beautiful refurbished pier and wide stretches of white sand, Seaford Beach is a fantastic place to spend the day.
Invite friends and family for a memorable location to spread out and enjoy crystal clear waters. The beach and pier are a photographer's dream, come at sunrise or sunset to capture spectacular shots of the area.
The beach is also close to shops, restaurants and a large supermarket. Public barbeques are available at the car park off Station Street.
The Seaford Foreshore Reserve is a beautiful trail running parallel to the beach, inland from gentle dunes. The reserve is a five kilometre stretch with the finest example of Coast Banksia Woodland in Melbourne. Protected from the wind, it is an easy walking trail that is welcoming to dogs on leads.”

“I'm new to the area and on the hunt for good coffee. I'll stop right there because I think I found it! Coffee was perfect in every way possible here. Loved the vibe and style of the cafe. The staff are super lovely. The cafe is flowing with locals and let's be honest, they probably want to keep it that way. The food is honest and flavorsome and you can tell this cafe is all good vibes which is 100% my scene.”

“Cosy, friendly service place with a great menu and vibe. Served by a very welcoming young lady, nothing a problem. Wine by the glass decent and well priced. Food, especially their Spanish ‘Shepard pie’ a big winner. The quinoa salad was good but needed something. I skied for some olive oil and that lifted the salad to the next level.
Going back to try their paella night on Mondays for their deal with a glass of wine. Would recommend.”

“Seaford Wetlands is a 305 hectare nature reserve listed on the Register of the National Estate. The wetlands are home to a wide variety of bird life, including a number of rare and endangered migratory species protected by international agreements. The large numbers and variety of bird life make the Wetlands popular with bird watchers. Many migratory birds from as far afield as Siberia visit the reserve from October to March.
There are stands of river red gums around the margins of the Wetlands, some of which are estimated to be around 300 years old. Some have scars where the bark was stripped for use by the Bunurong Aboriginal people prior to European settlement.
The swamp is noted for its prolific and various bird life. Around 130 different species have been observed there in recent years. The more common species are wetland-dependent birds which occur in southern Victoria, such as ducks, swans, rails and pelicans.
A number of rare migratory bird species also visit the wetlands between October and March. These come from Northern Asia and are protected by treaties between the Australian Government and the Governments of Japan and China. Many birds can easily be seen from the vantage points overlooking the wetland's lagoons. Others are more difficult to spot because they prefer the protection of the reed beds.
The wetlands support a small variety of native animals consisting of swamp rat, water rat, snakes and frogs. Three types of fish can also be found in the wetlands: common galaxias, short-finned eels and mosquitofish (an exotic pest species)”
