ITINERARY:
Come see the amazing Shipwreck Coast at sunset! This is undoubtedly one of the most spectacular coastal drives in the world, and the perfect way to end the day is to enjoy the sunset behind the 12 Apostles!
We depart Melbourne around lunchtime and follow the Great Ocean Road alongside some of southern Australia's most beautiful surf beaches, along with some amazing photo opportunities and an opportunity to see some of the local wildlife. Visit to the stunning Great Ocean Road Chocolaterie and Ice Creamery, where we can enjoy free chocolate samples while taking in the breathtaking views.
There are countless opportunities to capture magnificent coastal photo opportunities as we wind our way along the breath-taking Great Ocean Road. Be sure to stop off and look for native wildlife before traveling onto the seaside town of Apollo Bay if you have time. You will have time to purchase lunch/dinner before we continue our journey, so please take advantage of that opportunity. Driving through the rolling hills of the Otway National Park, we head towards the Port Campbell National Park, where we hear about some of the tragic stories about the shipwreck coast and view some impressive rock formations at Loch Ard Gorge.
We will conclude the day with our final stop at the awe-inspiring 12 Apostles where we will be able to watch the sun sink behind these impressive rock formations at sunset. En route back to Melbourne we stop off at the township of Colac for dinner (not included).
