The Great Ocean Road, Australia

For the most impressive coastal drives in Australia, take a trip to The Great Ocean Road. You have a variety of recreational activities like golfing, fishing, surfing and diving making it a great holiday destination.

The Great Ocean Road area lies on the south-west coast of Victoria. Begin your trip from Geelong and the Bellarine Peninsula and encounter the most amazing beaches, excellent restaurants and mesmerising heritage. Absorb the vibrant and energetic atmosphere of bayside Geelong which happens to be Victoria’s largest city next to one. Or you may pay a visit to old-world Queenscliff to see its opulent naval history, first-rate eateries and heritage resorts.

Down the length of The Great Ocean Road, holiday by the sea at seaside resorts in the towns of Apollo and Lorne. Have fun at the striking beaches and enjoy the water sports. And the most beautiful rainforest landscapes at Otway Ranges close by are worth the visit.

Go see Port Campbell; one of the most frequented regions of The Great Ocean Road. Pounded by vicious winds and untamed seas, the coastline near Port Campbell has been carved over thousands of years resulting in a sequence of unusual rock piles that emerge from the Southern Ocean. Also referred to as the Twelve Apostles, they are one of Victoria’s most marvellous natural attractions.

The Great Ocean Road lets you have a superb holiday. Enjoy ocean-going life in the village with the fishing jetties, wonderfully conserved majestic structures and nautical museums telling stories of ships that lost their way along the jagged shipwreck coast. Make your reservations now!
