There’s something about St Andrews Beach that feels different from the rest of the Peninsula. The air is saltier, the dunes rise higher, and the ocean doesn’t ask for your attention — it takes it. At the gateway to this rugged stretch of coast, you’ll find a modest 80s brick veneer, part of a tiny hamlet of local shops.

For the past few years, whenever we’ve travelled the long sweep of Point Nepean Road — which is often — one little shopfront has always hummed out to us. A flicker of light, a kind of beacon in the sea. Blink and you’ll miss it — a dark corner store wedged between Rosebud, Capel Sound and Rye — but once you’ve noticed it, you can’t unsee it.
