If you wish to cycle on to Point Lillias, which is the actual point which marks the northern end of Corio Bay, you will need to continue on the bike path to Lara, then take Avalon Beach Road to the fishing hamlet of Avalon. The last kilometre is unsealed gravel road. From Avalon head north, on a footpath at the end of the road. A walk of around a kilometre brings you to Point Lillias.
