If you travel the Great Ocean Road the dramatic coastline of southwest Victoria will keep you mesmerized. While the Twelve Apostles, carved spectacularly from limestone by wind and water, are certainly a highlight along the route, don’t forget to look out for whales in winter and enjoy the tranquil, temperate rainforest in the Great Otway National Park. Historic seaside villages like Port Fairy and Queenscliff will charm you with their elegant Victorian buildings and fresh local food. There are ample recreational opportunities along the way, so play a round of golf, go fishing, or ride on a helicopter to experience the natural wonders of the area from above – the choice is all yours.
Extend your stay
Why not stay a little longer and book Great Ocean Road accommodation along the route? If you feel like indulging yourself, there are plenty of magnificent Great Ocean Road hotels and resorts to choose from.

Travel Basics
