이 투어의 정차 지점 (9)
- 1 Torquay — Surf Coast The official start of the Great Ocean Road and birthplace of Australian surf culture. Bells Beach hosts the world's longest-running surf competition, held every Easter since 1962.
- 2 Bells Beach The limestone cliffs frame one of the most famous surf breaks on Earth. The reef bottom creates consistent swells that draw professional surfers from around the world.
- 3 Anglesea — Split Point Lighthouse The white lighthouse at Aireys Inlet marks the beginning of the coastal cliffs. Kangaroos graze on the golf course here — a quintessentially Australian juxtaposition.
- 4 Memorial Arch — Eastern View The timber arch marks the start of the road built by 3,000 returned servicemen between 1919 and 1932. It is the world's largest war memorial — dedicated to those who died in World War I.
- 5 Lorne A holiday town nestled between the Otway Ranges and the sea. The Erskine Falls trail descends through lush tree fern gullies to a 30-meter waterfall in temperate rainforest.
- 6 Apollo Bay A fishing village and artist colony at the foot of the Otway Ranges. The road turns inland from here, climbing through ancient beech rainforest before returning to the coast.
- 7 Cape Otway Lightstation The oldest surviving lighthouse on mainland Australia, built in 1848. Koalas crowd the trees along the access road — some branches hold a dozen at once.
- 8 Gibson Steps Seventy steps carved into the cliff face descend to a beach at the base of 70-meter cliffs. Standing on the sand, you feel the scale of the Shipwreck Coast — vast, vertical, and primordial.
- 9 Twelve Apostles Limestone stacks rising from the Southern Ocean — once part of the mainland cliffs, now isolated by relentless erosion. Originally only nine were visible; one collapsed in 2005.
