    On the return jouney and only 25 minutes from Port is a cluster of over 80 historic bathing boxes, also known as beach huts. This is a small, usually wooden and often brightly coloured, box above the high tide mark on popular bathing beaches. This is a wonderful photo opportunity with Melbourne City Back drop and a chance to get sand inbetween your toes before heading back to Port.
