Great Ocean Road

The Great Ocean Road is a 243 km stretch of road along the south-eastern coast of Australia between the Victorian cities of Torquay and Warrnambool.

One of the most scenic parts of the road is the stretch between Port Campbell and Petersborough. This is the section contained by the Port Campbell National Park and has the major rock formations.

Car offers the most flexibility for seeing the area. Coach tours are also easily available. There are many sights to see away from the townships, and along the coast. Getting to them by general public transport would be difficult. There are so many pullouts and sights, that you can fall into a yet another spectacular vista fatigue, when driving the road. Is it worth pulling off the road for another cliff drop, another gorge, or another arch? Make sure you plan your trip, so you can skip some attractions if you need to, but don't miss the truly amazing ones.
