🌊🚗 The Ultimate Great Ocean Road Adventure: Wildlife & Iconic Views 🦘🐨

#favouriteitinerary Start in Torquay – the gateway to the Great Ocean Road and Australia’s surf capital. Stop by Bells Beach, famous for its world-class waves, before beginning the scenic coastal drive. As you continue, keep an eye out for echidnas, koalas, and kangaroos in the wild. A great spot to see koalas lounging in the trees is Kennett River, while kangaroos are often spotted around Anglesea Golf Course. Take a break at Apollo Bay, where lush rainforests meet the sea. A short detour into the Great Otway National Park offers a chance to see echidnas scurrying through the undergrowth and experience stunning waterfalls. The final stretch brings you to the breathtaking Twelve Apostles, rising dramatically from the ocean. Walk to nearby Gibson Steps for a closer look or catch the sunset for a truly unforgettable view. This journey combines epic coastal scenery with incredible wildlife encounters, making it an iconic Aussie road trip!
