Anita Crescent, Venus Bay, VIC 3956

Anita Crescent, as with most of Venus Bay, is a strange place. It's like a regular Gippsland country area but instead of a regular town there is just heaps and heaps of houses populated by holiday house owners and retirees. There are a few shops down the road at the first section of houses but you can't get much there so to do real shopping you need to head all the way back to Inverloch or Leongatha.

So, if you're all stocked up the place is great. You can easily walk to the beach which, as you can see by the photos, is stunning. Fine white sand against a blue sky with waves high enough for boogie boarding but no so high you'd think you'd wash away. You also get the local wildlife wandering around (we saw an echidna pottering around in the vacant lot next door).

Basically, it's a fantastic holiday spot... love the serenity.
