Green Point

Green Point is a coastal headland and nature reserve on the Brighton foreshore in the City of Bayside, Victoria, on Port Phillip Bay. The reserve features low sandstone cliffs, remnant coastal vegetation and a rocky foreshore. It is notable for its scenic bay views, walking trails along the Bayside Coastal Trail, and its location between Dendy Street Beach and Brighton Beach, near the Brighton Bathing Boxes.

Visitors can expect a small coastal reserve with cliff-top lawns, native coastal vegetation, and walking paths along the Bayside Coastal Trail. The site offers open views across Port Phillip Bay, access to a rocky beach and foreshore below via paths and steps, and quiet areas for sightseeing and photography. The surroundings are residential foreshore with beach access, with no major built structures on the point itself.

Green Point is part of the Brighton foreshore which developed as a seaside recreation area from the mid-19th century as Brighton grew as a bayside suburb of Melbourne. The reserve retains natural coastal landform and vegetation representative of the Port Phillip Bay coastline.

The Brighton foreshore lies within the traditional lands of the Bunurong / Boon Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation. The coastal landscape holds cultural significance as part of the broader Port Phillip Bay coastal environment valued for recreation and natural heritage.
