Brighton beach is a large sandy beach. Over the years it has been dredged many times in order to replace the sand that has been washed away making the beach smaller and exposing rocks. One effect of the dredging was to bring rocks from the water onto the beach which is a major problem for those using the beach, particularly the shallow parts of the water. The Holdfast Bay Council has spent much time using machines to clear these rocks for swimmers. In summer, a sandbar normally forms in the water which can produce waves on windy days.
The Esplanade is an area of prime real estate which has transformed over the years from a street of old cottages to new modern town houses which can fetch up to $2 000 000.
Jetty Road is a restaurant district and road perpendicular to the Esplanade.
