Breamlea Coastal Management Update
Published on 4 April 2022
Barwon Coast is delighted to announce that on 1 April 2022 the management of the Breamlea coastal reserves transferred from the City of Greater Geelong to Barwon Coast. This includes management of the Breamlea Caravan Park.
As coastal land managers for the Ocean Grove, Barwon Heads and 13th Beach areas we have a vision that the natural environment of our coastline will flourish whilst meeting the needs of our engaged communities. We now extend this vision to the Breamlea coastal area.
That vision is already being filled by our Coastal Maintenance Team who have improved the access track at Bancoora Beach by removing excess sand that built up over the past few months from strong easterly winds.
The works have significantly improved accessibility for beach users and were timed perfectly, being completed before Easter. Our Natural Resources Management team are also completing environmental works surrounding the lookout platform at Bancoora and we look forward to further improving this part of the coast in the coming months.
