Many Tips That Make Sure You Have The Best Great Ocean Road Experience

1. Drop in the towns along the way

Along the Great Ocean Road are lots of towns which offer great ocean road accommodation and various experiences for individuals to check out. If you like surfing head to Torquay's Bell's Beach where the yearly Ripcurl Pro is held throughout the Easter weekend. If trekking is more your forte Anglesea provides a variety of beach and cliff hikes which all end with stunning views down the coast. Perhaps you are a food lover then Lorne is the location to go to with fresh seafood coming directly from the water and onto your plate at a choice of dining establishments - scrumptious!

There's more to the towns through; whether it be the chilled, hippy vibes of Anglesea or fishing with the locals inApollo Bay, by slowing your trip down not just do you get to take your time to actually experience the towns and shoreline you're driving, however by stopping frequently you get to turn off and unwind which allowing your mental concentration to have a break from driving which makes results in more secure driving when back on the road.

2. Take corny photos

You drove all this way so why not take photos of you 'holding' among the rock stacks at the Twelve Apostles? Or surfing on among the wood beams neglecting the beach! Trust me even if you feel foolish at the time you will look back and have an excellent laugh, and individuals standing beside you will most likely do the very same thing!

3. Don't try and do it all in one day

Despite waking up in Torquay early and already making the drive to Warrnambool in one day we didn't think about the time we had actually wish to spend exploring. We had not spoken with a map-- so we didn't find out about things like the Airey's Inlet Lighthouse up until Joc pointed it out mid-trip remembering information her Dad passed on from a journey when she was more youthful, and by the time we had actually hit the Great Otway National Park the bad weather condition had actually begun to come in leaving us in a predicament without seeing the Twelve Apostles and London Bridge.

We stopped in every town, and at everything that caught our eye. If you take a trip like this then my suggestion is to find Port Campbell  or Apollo Bay accommodation. This allows you a lot of time to check out the towns and activities in the location, along with enabling a lot of rest to ensure you remain safe when driving the Great Ocean Road.
