Bomboras Beach Bar

Sightseeing
Bells Beach is world famous in surfing circles, and is home to the Rip Curl Pro at Easter time. It's a great spot to watch surfers in action from the lookout - or if you're an experienced surfer, to get out there yourself. Also a great walk around the clifftops to Point Addis - or back this way towards Jan Juc if you're feeling energetic.

My favourite lookout. You could always get some fish'n'chips from the nearby shops at Jan Juc and eat them here at sunset.

Surfing
The point is a good spot for beginner/intermediate surfers as it's a bit more protected than some of the other beaches. Also a great spot to just kick back and enjoy a sunny day or a swim.

Scenic beach
Gorgeous beach. You can go for a stroll on the first beach on the left (or have a surf - the waves are usually mellow), or you can drive right up to the end car park on the point, and take the stairs down to the right for a more wild and woolly beach experience (my personal favourite).
