Moreland Beach East of Davenport Tas

Survey Point Moreland Beach east of Davenport Tas
Latitude-41.1600000 (41° 9′ 36″ S)
Longitude146.4502800 (146° 27′ 1″ E)

At the back of the airport the Moreland Beach Rd ends with a track onto the beach. Here there is a small flat area with no facilities. The rocks on the point are a good high tide roost. All the area inland is farmland. This is a very popular spot for day trippers to get access to the beach, most drive on it… sigh.

Camp rating 6 it’s a busy spot during the weekends and evenings, but few people camp here. There are no facilities
