Moyjil, also known as Point Ritchie, is a coastal headland at the mouth of the Hopkins River in Warrnambool. It is a striking place in its own right, with surf, river, dunes, and basalt, but its deeper importance lies in Aboriginal cultural history and archaeological research into long human presence on this coast.
A visit should be quiet and respectful rather than extractive. Walk the paths, take in the meeting of river and sea, and treat the interpretive material as an invitation to understand that Warrnambool's story begins far earlier than whaling, ports, or Victorian seaside development.
