The Great Ocean Road follows the southwest coastline of Victoria from from Torquay to Warrnambool — around 300km. With breathtaking panoramic views, it winds its way through many State and National Parks. The dramatic ocean scenery changes markedly between three sections: the Surf Coast, which starts at historic Geelong; the Otway Ranges, where the road leaves the coast at Angelsea; and the Shipwreck Coast, where it re-joins the sea. The highlight of any tour of the Great Ocean Road is the Twelve Apostles, a dramatic group of outcrops isolated from their headlands by the fierce erosion of the sea. Watching the Apostles is an unforgettable experience.
