Gorgeous beach without the nasty hidden rocks often found further along the coast. Great path with options to Jog, walk or cycle along that takes you to Middle Brighton Beach through the Brighton baths on one side and all the way to Albert Park on the other. Dogs are allowed during restricted hours - check local signs.

Large supermarket, alternative to Coles Supermarket chain and stocking my favourite selection of food brands. This branch has a dedicated Sushi bar of excellent quality.

Brilliant fruit and vegetables with a comprehensive range of organic options. Everything is absolutely delicious and you can tell the care that goes into their produce selections. Pricing for their fruit and vegetables is not dissimilar to local supermarket pricing (but guaranteed to be tastier!) with the exception of their artisan ranges of pates, dips, yoghurts, cereals and breads. a gourmets delight!
