A coastal adventure minus the crowd
Escape the crowds and experience the Great Ocean Road in reverse. Start your journey from Melbourne and take the inland route where you’ll arrive first at the Twelve Apostles where you can watch the wave hit against the limestone stacks. Then, head on next to marvel at the Razorback, a jagged rock formation not far from the Twelve Apostles and Loch Ard Gorge where you can listen to your guide tell you the legend behind the 1878 shipwreck.
Spot wildlife and indulge in sweet treats
Move on Mait’s Rest in Great Otway National Park, where you enjoy a guided rainforest walk under towering beech and myrtle trees. Who knows, you might spot some kangaroos peering at you from the greenery. Next, stop for lunch (at your own expense) at the coastal town of Apollo Bay before heading to Kennett River where you can spot koalas napping in eucalyptus trees.
