Permits & licences

About this page

  • Permits are required for foreshore activities, including beach weddings, filming/photography, yoga and personal training sessions, surfing competitions and many other similar activities where use of Crown land coastal reserves is required.
  • Surf schools, mobile food vendors and many other types of ongoing commercial activities taking place along the coast require a licence.
  • We also issue and manage leases for a range of coastal-dependent businesses, including caravan parks in Anglesea and Cumberland River - which are currently leased to private operators - and manage the lease relating to Lorne's Mantra Erskine House resort.
