Fairhaven Beach
- Surf spot
Fairhaven Beach is a broad sandy shoreline near Aireys Inlet, backed by the bush-covered Otway Ranges and a relaxed coastal township. Several surf breaks run along the beach, and its consistently strong swell makes it better suited to experienced swimmers and surfers. Visitors can use the nearby toilets, picnic tables, accessible facilities and walking trails. Shifting sand can create rip currents, so conditions should be assessed carefully before entering the water.
