Victoria’s Great Ocean Road is one of Australia’s most dramatic drives. The road follows the state coast for 243kms from near Warrnambool to the lovely old town of Torquay. The route is all about nature with stupendous land and seascapes, surfing beaches and diverse wildlife among its delights. Opting for Great Ocean Road caravan & camping accommodation places visitors in some amazing natural settings.
