Beaumaris Suburb Profile

Beaumaris seems worlds away from the bustle of Melbourne’s CBD, which is only 20km away. With breathtaking sunsets, this quiet pocket of Port Phillip has sun-soaked beaches, rock pools, and a marine sanctuary – making this a family-friendly wonderland. The beauty of living in Beaumaris lies in all things natural, so unsurprisingly its residents live an active, outdoor lifestyle. Locals are hooked on the suburb’s relaxed, almost holiday feel, and they love taking advantage of it whenever they can. Some people soak up the sun, while others run, swim, sail, or snorkel at the Ricketts Point Marine Sanctuary. For those who take their morning coffee with an ocean view, head to the nearby Ricketts Point Beachside Café. 

The ocean aside, living in Beaumaris also means embracing the suburb’s strong sense of community. The streets are safe, and neighbours are considered friends. Combined with the parks, schools, and facilities, the area is innately family-friendly. Beaumaris Concourse is the main commercial precinct, with a good mix of shops, cafés, restaurants, boutiques, and entertainment spots. 
Foodies will feel at home in Beaumaris, which boasts an impressively large restaurant offering for its size. Rivalling Melbourne’s inner-city suburbs, you’ll find everything from wood-fired pizzas to vindaloo.
