The Rest of Victoria



The Great Ocean Road


The Great Ocean Road is one of the most famous road trips in Australia and covers an area between Melbourne and Adelaide. Some of the highlights of the Great Ocean Road include:

Torquay - the surfing capital of Australia, Quicksilver and Ripcurl are based here. There's a surfing museum and Bells' Beach is near here.

Apollo Bay - popular beach resort with lots of touristy things to do.

Cape Otway - Rainforests, you leave the road at this stage and go inland.

12 Apostles - famous rock stacks, there's actually only eight left, although there might be even less at this stage. The best thing to do would be to get the helicopter ride and view them from the sky, the helicopters are right across the road from the Apostles, and cost around $70.

Loch Ard - beautiful area with steps leading down from the cliffs to a beach below with caves in the cliff face.

The Arch/London Bridge - Looks like london Bridge.

Phillip Island


Go here to see the fairy penguins. At Summerland beach you will see the penguins leave the sea and go up to their homes on Penguin Parade. There's also the Nobbies, a group of rocks that rise from the sea and seal rocks, where the largest colony of fur seals in Australia live, just off the southwest tip of the island.

The Grampians


Come here to do some serious bushwalking, rock climbing, horseriding, or to see some aboriginal art.
