Balnarring, anywhere within 250 to 300m left of the yacht club, any further around and it can get weedy, it's still fishable but not fun if your not used to it.
Merricks, either side of the yacht club, there is reef on both sides, but you still have 500 to 700m of beach to choose from.

I'm sure if you search the forum, it will come up with a lot more info.

I haven't fished Balnarring in a long time but from memory the area to the left of the boat club is the most favoured.

That same area is also designated as an area for windsurfers and with the long weekend coming up may be a bit busy. :-D
