Cheviot Beach, Victoria

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cheviot Beach is a beach near Point Nepean in Victoria, Australia. It was named after the SS Cheviot which broke up and sank nearby with the loss of 35 lives on 20 October 1897.[1] On 17 December 1967, Prime Minister Harold Holt disappeared, and presumably drowned, while swimming at the beach.
