I am going to post a series of photos of the Revolute Surfboard Stand at iconic surf spots in Victoria. The first location is Point Lonsdale, it is one of my favourite surf spots and places in general because of its stunning coastal beauty and good waves.
Where is the Revolute Surfboard Stand?
These images of the Revolute Surfboard Stand were taken at Point Lonsdale. This was out on the Point of the coastal reserve looking toward Point Nepean. No waves to speak of today, off the point or in the bay. That aside, it was a beautiful evening watching the sun go down and eating fish and chips. Highly recommend the fish and chips from ‘Lonnie Fish and Chips’.
Walking Trail
Walked a bit of the coastal track through the tea and moonah trees and along the cliff top from the shops to the Rip View lookout. If you refer to the Aerial View below, you can see some of the walking trail. The surfboard stand is in this photo too but it is a bit hard to see.
Things To Do
If you haven’t been to Point Lonsdale it’s worth the trip, it sits at the west side of the mouth of Port Phillip Bay (What is known as The Rip) and is a beautiful little spot. The back beach catches a lot more swell than the front beach but both are good on their day. If there are no waves and you are leaving the board in its surfboard stand, you can always check out the lighthouse or the pier or go for a walk on one of the many walking trails in the area. At the base of the light house are some awesome rock pools. You can swim in some of these pools on low tide.
Point Lonsdale is only a 5 minute drive from Queenscliff where you can catch the ferry to Sorrento, opening up all the wave possibilities that the Mornington Peninsula has to offer. If you are looking for a Surfboard stand please consider visiting the GLYO O shop.
