Human旅行摄影【Anglesea Golf Club, have a close contact with kangaroos】
On the way back to Melbourne from the Great Ocean Road, I went to Angelsea.
Anglesea is located 10 minutes west of Bells Beach. If you continue west, you will reach Lorne and Apollo Bay. It is a small town between Torquay and Lorne (17 kilometers from Torquay and 38 kilometers from Lorne), and it is also a popular choice for locals to travel short distances in summer. The main attraction is Anglesea Main Beach, just south of the Great Ocean Road, the main road of the town, suitable for surfing, swimming or relaxing. The town’s more distinctive activity is golf. Of course, our purpose is not to see golf, but to see the kangaroos here.
There are many kangaroos here. I have seen groups of wild kangaroos on the hillside near the Twelve Apostles before, but the wild kangaroos are very alert and can’t get close at all. Here, you can see these cute and majestic angels at a relatively close distance. Some kangaroos here have protective rings around their necks. It is said that the kangaroos here are called Macropus giganteus, which means "super big feet". They are the largest grey kangaroos in eastern Australia.
I envy people who play golf here. Playing golf with kangaroos is also interesting.
It is best to avoid noon when watching kangaroos. Kangaroos hide in the shade of trees. Early morning and evening are their time for activities. In addition, it is said that golf courses were open in the past, but tourists ran everywhere. Some tourists were hit in the head by high-speed golf balls and died. So now the golf course has taken measures to take someone to watch kangaroos. Don't enter alone.
There is also a cafe here. It is also very nice to sit down and have a cup of coffee and enjoy the scenery outside the window when you are tired.
