MUST DO'S....THIS SUMMER
CATCH A WAVE!
The coastline from Torquay to the 12 Apostles has surf spots dotted along it.
If you're an inexperienced or beginner surfer, the best way to learn is to take a surf lesson from qualified professionals on easier breaks. The Great Ocean Road region has some of the world surfing professionals' favourite surf spots.
FEAST ON OUR FESTIVALS!
The summer months are a superb time to be “on the road”..Our calendar is full of summer events. The iconic Port Fairy Folk Festival, Lorne Pier to Pub, Cadell Evans Great Ocean Road Race or the Otway Odyssey, to name a few. Then there’s the Apollo Bay Seafood and Local Produce Festival….An aquatic smorgasbord serving up deliciousness…yum!!
THE THREE S's
Summer, Sand & Swimming….From Torquay to Portland and beyond there are literally hundreds of bay and ocean beaches to choose from. In summer they act as a cool retreat, the fun of building a sandcastle with a toddler. It may be tempting to jump in anywhere along the coast, but we advise it's best to look for the yellow and red beach flags.
