Morgan Beach is an unpatrolled sandy beach, nestled below 50 metre high cliffs of Permian Ice Age glacial debris. Explore the rocky reef at the southern end of the beach and enjoy a swim in the clean waters at the north end of the beach.
The un-named access road to Morgan Beach begins in Cape Jervis, opposite Fleurieu Avenue. The road branches after a few hundred metres: the right branch goes to a spectacular clifftop lookout, and the left branch is a steep descent to the carpark by the beach.
Four wheel drive vehicles are permitted on the beach but please check tides and weather conditions. Dogs are allowed on the beach however there are restrictions during daylight saving.
Some of the boulders on the beach & reef were transported here by the Permian ice Age. These boulders (and other nearby glacial features) attract geologists from all over the world.
