Eastmans Beach (T 1234) is located 200 m to the south and is a 100 m long pocket of sand bordered by low rocky points, with sand linking around the southern point to Goftons Beach. A grassy park, footpath, then the trees of the reserve back the beach, with a few boulders scattered across the low tide bar at the southern end. Goftons Beach (T 1235) continues immediately to the south as a 400 m long sandy beach that has prograded up to 100 m seaward at its eastern end against the training wall for the Brid River. The prograded beach is backed by a low grassy foredune with the trees in the reserve marking the original shoreline. The town centre of Bridport lies 200 m south of the beach. The low tide bar widens to 300 m wide river-mouth shoals towards the river mouth, with extensive sand flats exposed at low tide (Fig. 4.280). read more
