Geelong, Bellarine Peninsula, Queenscliff

|
Famous
surfing locations along this coastline include Bells Beach where the annual
Bells Beach Easter Classic draws surfers and surfing legends from all
over the globe. If you leave the GOR at Apollo Bay, you can travel to
Cape Otway Lighthouse on the most southern point of Victoria and enjoy
yet another spectacular view towards Port Campbell National Park. It is
this area of windswept coastline (known as the shipwreck coast) that is
home to one of the worlds most amazing natural wonders -The Twelve Apostles.
To appreciate the sheer magnificence of this place take a walk down Gibson steps and onto the beach. With a 70 metre cliff face, this is the only place to access the beach until you reach Loch Ard Gorge where you won’t be able to hold yourself back from a swim – no matter the weather. There is no abseiling or rock climbing here and nor would we recommend it. Stick to the boardwalks and viewing platforms and take spare film. |
