Torquay is the start of the great ocean road, and this gives us an opportunity for our first stop to grab a coffee and have a walk on this popular beach before heading to the Chocolate factory.

We drive and stop along this scenic route with spectacular views of the ocean and hills on the other side, including driving through a magnificent rainforest.

The Split Point Lighthouse is a must-see attraction and stands as a stunning sentinel on the Shipwreck Coast. Take a trip through maritime history and be amazed by this wild and dangerous coastline where hundreds of ships have crashed. There is an opportunity to climb up the lighthouse for an additional fee.

We make a quick stop here to learn about the history of the GOR Build and take photos under the Great Ocean Road sign

We climb up in Lorne for some of the best eys overlooking the ocean and the great ocean road below.

If you love waterfalls, this is a must-see, especially in the winter months after the rain.

Volcanic beach walk

They call it 'paradise by the sea' for its natural beauty, and we will stop for the night with a chance to explore the beach and town.
