5Port Phillip Bay Beaches, Melbourne, Australia

While Melbourne is home to many scenic spots, several beaches along Port Phillip Bay face pollution problems. Stormwater runoff from the city often carries litter, oil, and other pollutants into the bay, especially during heavy rains. Popular beaches like St. Kilda are particularly affected, with rubbish accumulating on the sand.

Main Issue: Urban stormwater runoff and inadequate waste control.
