Mornington Peninsula Shire Council has been working directly with the Victorian Government with the aim to develop a long-term solution for the return of the Portsea Public Beach.
The former healthy and popular Victorian public beach, 30 metres wide and 600 metres long has disappeared over the past decade requiring a temporary sand bank wall to be erected to halt any further erosion. This sandbag wall is currently being repaired by DELWP to protect the coastline and provide time for further investigation into the restoration of the beach.
