[2024 Torquay Attraction] Travel Guide for Great Ocean Road (Updated Oct)

Most impressive coastal drive in Australia

#bucketlistreboot Great Ocean Road in Southern Australia is one of the most impressive coastal destinations in Australia. It is also one of the most beautiful scenic roads in the world. Stretching for 243km between Torquay to Wattnambool, the Great Ocean Road has a lot to offer: rugged cliffs, beautiful rock formations, scenic viewpoints, stunning beaches, charming town, wildlife and many more. As there are so many things to see along Great Ocean Road, it will be overwhelming if you plan to complete in a day. Stretch it to at least 2 days with a night over at Port Campell or Apollo Bay. Do check out if there’s any road work during the day you plan to drive.

Epic Great Ocean Road trip

This road trip was a perfect salve from the busy city life! The crashing waves, the trickling rivers, perfect balm for a tired soul.

Magnificent Twelve Apostles

#createwithtrip Great Ocean Road is about 200 plus kilometres stretch of Coastline Road along the south eastern part of Australia. It was one of the most gorgeous attraction of Victoria state. I remember years ago when I was studying in Melbourne, we will always took this journey when friends or relatives visited. You can either joined a bus tour arranged by local tour operators or if you prefer the flexibility along the journey, you can drive and stop at different scenic points along the way. The most iconic part of the tour is definitely The Twelve Apostles. The formation of rocks raised from the sea is magnificent and rarely seen in other parts of the world. A great spot for photos and selfie. Other unforgettable scenic spots include the famous lighthouse guiding the waterway of Anglesea at Cape airway. One of my other favourite attraction is the Loch Ard Gorge. you can actually take a hike down to the bay and explore the magnificent site. It is simply the best. There are plenty of food joints along the way and you can stop at various places to savour the local cuisine. Among them are the famous town of Torquay and Port Campbell. This tour is the perennial favourite and I would recommend it with my both hands and foots.

An Awe-Inspiring Journey on the Great Ocean Road!

The trip along the Great Ocean Road was an incredible experience, overwhelmed by the grandeur of nature. We joined a local bus tour. The road that stretches along the coastline offers a series of breathtaking views. The '12 Apostles' rock formations, in particular, were astonishing in their scale, making us feel the power of nature. Even from the bus windows, the scenery was magnificent, and the occasional stops at beaches and lookout points provided refreshing breaks. Spending time with friends while feeling the sea breeze was very pleasant, making it an unforgettable journey where we fully enjoyed the majesty of nature.

Trip down the Great Ocean Road

#melbournetrip I took a one day Great Ocean Road Tour and it was a guided scenic drive along Australia's most spectacular coastline with jaw-dropping ocean views and ancient rainforests. Seeing the coastline of Great Ocean Road was amazing. Absolutely beautiful. The most gorgeous areas I’ve ever seen. The most famous part of the Great Ocean Road is the 12 Apostles section. Lovely views of the ocean and natural rock formations. Simply marvelous way to spend a full day, visiting the amazing marvel that is the highway and the places along the road. Highly recommended for the adventurous traveler.

Great Ocean Road Tour

The great ocean road is definitely something you need to check out when you are in Melbourne. The views along the coastal line is superb. You could opt for a nice one night stay, the airbnbs seem awesome. I did a day tour which I think it’s sufficient to see and experience the nature.

Great Ocean Road - Melbourne!

What can I say, photos really can’t do justice to the beauty of nature! It was just so therapeutic looking at the waves crashing, and the never ending strong winds messing up your hair, but the beauty of the 12 apostles was worth it, after a 3-4 hours drive from the Melbourne city! :) #melbourne #greatoceanroad #12apostles

Guys, you should check out this - Great Ocean Road 大洋路🇦🇺 Although it's an eight-hour drive to Melbourne and back. I went on a day trip and it was around AUD 200. It's worth going at least once in your life!

This is the most beautiful beach I have ever seen. the water is cytal clear and weather warm perfectly for someone who love summer (SPF50 IS MUST). Bring good cooked food and anything that considers are already to eat otherwise you won’t have time for swim haha.
