Fishing is prohibited at the Eastern Beach Swimming Enclosure

Fishing is prohibited from the swimming enclosure at Eastern Beach, Geelong. This rule is in place to protect swimmers and ensure everyone can enjoy this boardwalk safely.

Why is fishing prohibited?
The City of Greater Geelong has banned fishing in this area due to several recent incidents, including a swimmer becoming tangled in fishing line. Patrols have increased and more signage has been installed to enforce this important safety measure.

Key Points:
• No Fishing is allowed on the wooden boardwalk swimming enclosure.
• Safety First: Hooks and lines pose serious risks to swimmers and pedestrians.

• Enforcement: Community Safety & Regulation officers are actively patrolling the area, who can impound fishing gear or issue infringements.

Want to fish?
Please use nearby designated areas like Limeburners Point Boat Ramp or other structures along the Geelong foreshore. These spots are safe, accessible, and better suited for fishing.

Let’s work together to keep Eastern Beach a safe, enjoyable place for everyone.
