About Worm Bay

From Wikipedia

Worm Bay is a small beach on the eastern side of the Bay of Martyrs, near Peterborough, on the Great Ocean Road in south-western Victoria, Australia. The beach is approximately 100 metres (330 ft) long and lies within a narrow break in the surrounding limestone bluffs. Its position inside the Bay of Martyrs and the presence of offshore reefs provide some protection from open-ocean swell.
