Snorkeling under the ‘Flinders Pier’ is a must do when visiting Victoria’s Mornigton Peninsula. You may not expect it but there is plenty to see just below the surface, including ‘Weedy Seadragons’, Toadfish, Starfish, Crabs and much more. You will have to be weary of anglers above but in only 2 metres of water and with a keen eye it is not uncommon to spot a ‘Weedy Seadragon’ camouflaged among the weed and sea grass. The seadragons seem very unfazed by humans so if your lucky enough to spot one you shouldn’t have any trouble getting right up close for a good look. Towards the end of the pier there is a bit of discarded structure including an old engine where you are sure to find fish finding for protection.
Flinders Pier is easily accessible from the Car Park at Flinders Beach that also services the Boat Ramp adjacent to the pier.

Amazing spot for snorkeling!
Just be aware it can be murky from time to time so check to see if there is good visibility one the day you’re choosing to go!
Fantastic got to see a Weedy Seadragon for the first time!
Visibility was Great! Easy access! Great for Beginners
Just watch out for fishing lines
