🇦🇺 Melbourne Great Ocean Drive
One of the must-do when you are in Melbourne and it is also a great viewing place if you are after the autumn foliage. It will definitely be easier if you are driving, you can take your time and make stops along the way to take photos, have a meal then continuing driving. If you are making your way up to GOR Great Ocean Road, it is recommended to take the coastal drive. This way, you get to see the beautiful oceans views. On the way back, you can take the forest way and admire the greenery. Please be cautious as you will meet animals on the road.

Great Ocean Road!
When in Melbourne, the Great Ocean Road is a must add to your itinerary. We were in awe with the breathtaking view at every turn and it was really one of the highlights of our holiday. We stayed a night in a cabin at Port Campbell to fully soak in the whole experience and we would highly recommend!
Great Ocean Road in Australia
Just a few months ago, we took spontaneous trip to Australia and visit the Great Ocean Road. The overall breathtaking view is just amazing. You’ll see numerous distinct rock formations here. The surrounding beach and the rock formations is just mesmerizing. Be careful though as the drive here is kind of hard. It would be best if you would drive using a 4x4 vehicle #campingglamping
Twilight Bay Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jul)
Twilight Beach Australia 🇦🇺
#thingstodo
There are two car parks to access Twilight Bay beach. The first is located on Twilight Beach Rd and it is in the middle of the bay. It is a small car park without services from which a short staircase leads to the beach.
Here the beach is large and beautiful, but open to waves and winds. Most people who go to this beach use the much larger car parking at the end of Cove Ln, at the base of the promontory that divides this beach from Observatory Beach. Here there are the toilets and a short wooden staircase leads to the southern end of Twilight Beach.
Although here there is the typical sign present in Australian beaches with snakes on the dunes and sighting of sharks in the water, this part of the beach is very protected from winds and waves and therefore optimal for swimming. The small promontory and some rocks in the water a few tens of meters from the shore protect this part of the beach from big waves and winds, making it optimal for bathing. While we were there two large white-bellied sea eagle (Halideetus leucogaster) flew over the beach and the small promontory for several minutes. Certainly this is a very beautiful large beach whose most beautiful and suitable part for bathing is the south end
There are many stunning beaches along the Ocean Road and after a spectacular day at Cape Le Grand we enjoyed the ride along the coast and stopped several times to take photos. Twilight Bay was my favorite spot. It looks stunning with the rock formation and the incredible colours.
