On the banks of the Kennett River, enjoy a quiet journey in nature at the Whale Watching B&B.

[Opening] On the beautiful coast of Victoria, Australia, lies a desirable natural treasure - the Kennett River. This tranquil river not only attracts many tourists with its clear water and beautiful scenery, but is also famous for being the natural habitat of koalas. Kennett River is located in the western part of the Otter Coast section of the Great Ocean Road, only about 174 kilometers from Melbourne. It is an excellent place to explore Australia's natural ecology and coastal scenery. There are not only leisurely living koalas, but also colorful parrots and magnificent coastline scenery, each of which makes people linger. 🕘【Opening hours】 The Kennett River Koala Habitat is open 24 hours a day, all year round, allowing visitors to capture the dynamic moments of nature at any time. The recommended time to visit is early morning or evening, when koalas are most active and it is easier to observe their cute appearance. At the same time, please keep quiet and respect the living habits of wild animals. 💴【Ticket Price】 There is no charge for exploring the Kennett River and its surrounding natural wonders. However, if you choose to participate in local eco-tourism programs or enter certain specific areas, there may be small fees incurred. Please check relevant information in advance to avoid inconvenience. ⛺【Amusement Activities】 Kennett River Koala Walk: Stroll along the riverside trail and you will have the opportunity to observe wild koalas living leisurely in the eucalyptus trees up close. Remember to keep quiet and use your camera to record this rare moment. Parrot watching: In addition to koalas, Kennett River is also a paradise for many parrots. These brightly colored birds are not afraid of people and will even fly up to tourists to beg for food. Bring some bird food and experience the fun of close interaction with them. Cape Patton Lookout: From the lookout, you can see the magnificent coastline, which is a paradise for photography enthusiasts. RV campsite experience: If you have enough time, you might as well stay overnight at a local RV campsite. The campsite is well-equipped and koalas are often seen, making your stay even more unique. 🚌【Transportation Guide】 Driving from Melbourne is the most convenient way to get to Kennett River. Heading west along the Great Ocean Road, the scenery along the way is picturesque and refreshing. In addition, there are bus services connecting Melbourne and Kennett River, but the frequency may be less, so you need to check in advance and plan your trip. 👉【Itinerary】 Day 1: Depart from Melbourne in the morning, enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Great Ocean Road along the way, arrive at Kennett River at noon, settle down in the RV camp first, and then start the koala and parrot watching tour. In the evening, head to Barton Lookout to watch the sunset, and at night you can enjoy the peaceful starry sky at the campsite. Day 2: Get up early to visit the koala habitat again, then drive to nearby Apollo Bay or Port Campbell to explore more natural wonders and cultural landscapes.
