About
Blairgowrie
Blairgowrie is a quiet seaside village with a bay on one side and the wild Bass Strait coast on the other: calm white-sand beaches and a harbour out front, rock pools and limestone bluffs out the back.
A compact village strip of cafes and restaurants faces the foreshore, with plenty of places to stay close by.
Featured Spot
Blairgowrie Pier
The 280-metre pier is one of Victoria's best dive and snorkel sites, with more than 100 species of nudibranch and colourful sponges along its piles. It leads out to the Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron's marina, a safe boat harbour, with the village cafes and the long, calm swimming beach just across Point Nepean Road.
Front & Back Beaches
Blairgowrie has two coasts. The front beach is a long, calm sweep of sand on the bay, while the back beaches in the national park — Bridgewater Bay, Fowlers, Montforts and Dimmicks — are tucked between limestone bluffs, with rock pools at low tide. The back beaches are unpatrolled and not for swimming, so check the tide and take care.
