Water Park Point is an irregular, 80 m high headland that forms both the southern boundary of Nine Mile Beach and the northern head of expansive Corio Bay. Much of the 4 km of headland shore is rock, however set in the northern flanks are two small beaches, with longer Little Corio Bay just north of the southern tip. The base of the point is accessible via Nine Mile Beach, however there is no formal vehicle access to the point or the beach and no development. On the south side of Water Park Point is the 750 m long, east facing Little Corio Bay. It is a relatively straight sand beach (1360), backed by a vegetated dune field (that at one time spilled into backing Corio Bay), a stable foredune, then a 50 m wide high tide beach and a 150 m wide low tide beach and bar. Usually three to four rips cut across the base of the bar, including a permanent rip against the southern headland. Some rocks also lie off the southern end of the beach, with rock platforms bordering the headlands at each end. read more
