The Twelve Apostles on the Great Ocean Road in Melbourne, Australia

Located along Australia's Great Ocean Road, the Twelve Apostles 🤎 are a spectacular group of limestone pillars sculpted by nature. This breathtaking sight is an absolute must-see when traveling to Melbourne! Standing on the cliff edge, gazing at these towering rocks rising from the sea 🌊, you can feel the waves crashing and the strong winds blowing, as if hearing the whispers of nature—truly awe-inspiring. The best time to visit is during sunset 🌅, when the setting sun paints the horizon and the pillars in shades of red, creating a dreamlike, oil-painting-like scenery. It's recommended to wear warm windproof clothing, as the area is windy year-round. 📍Address: Great Ocean Road, Port Campbell National Park, Victoria 🗓️ Best Season: Spring and Summer (September to February) for clear views and longer daylight hours This site is about a 4-hour drive from Melbourne city 🚍, making it ideal for a day trip or an overnight getaway.

London Bridge

🎥 Day 1 – Melbourne to Apollo Bay “Hi everyone! Day 1 of our Great Ocean Road trip 🚗✨ We started from Melbourne City and made our first stop at Geelong, before heading down the coast. Along the way, we passed Torquay and stopped at the beautiful Split Point Lighthouse. Next was the famous Memorial Arch, and at Kennett River we spotted a koala – but it was fast asleep 🐨💤. By evening, we checked into Apollo Bay for our first night, enjoying the ocean views.” 🎥 Day 2 – Apollo Bay to Port Campbell “Day 2 was all about nature and coastal wonders. We began with a walk through the lush Maits Rest Rainforest, then explored the historic Cape Otway Lighthouse. Continuing west, we were blown away by the iconic Twelve Apostles. We also stopped at Loch Ard Gorge, The Grotto, and London Bridge before ending the day at Seafoam Villas in Port Campbell, our cozy stay for the night.” 🎥 Day 3 – Port Campbell to Melbourne “On our last day, we visited the dramatic Bay of Islands, then drove inland through Colac before heading back towards the city. Our final stop was the colorful Brighton Bath Boxes 🌈 – the perfect photo finish to our 3-day Great Ocean Road adventure!”
