Plan Your Journey Along the Great Ocean Road
Great Ocean Road
- 9.5 hour scenic road trip
- Ocean views
- Attractions and landmarks along the way
- Accommodation available
If you love a good road trip, the Great Ocean Road is a stand out-scenic drive that takes you along the South-West coast of the state. From Torquay to Warrnambool, you can take in majestic views of the Southern Ocean as the road bends over cliffs and snakes through coastal towns. Looking for things to do on the way? Chocolate lovers can head to the Great Ocean Road Chocolaterie & Ice Creamery for yummy desserts and a behind-the-scenes look at how their chocolate is made. There’s also the Split Point Lighthouse on the Shipwreck Coast in Aireys Inlet where the Australian television show ‘Round the Twist’ was filmed.
The main attraction along the Great Ocean Road are the spectacular 12 Apostles. There’s a lookout where you can witness the breathtaking view of the limestone stacks that stand up to 45 metres tall. The highlight of your Great Ocean Road adventure will not only be the sights and scenes along the way but also the memories of the journey in the car whether it's with friends, family or solo. The whole drive takes about 9.5 hours, but you cut it short or extend it depending on your travel plans - we recommend stopping by the seaside towns of Torquay or Lorne if you’re planning on staying the night, both of which offer a range of accommodations.
A city known for its multiculturalism and diversity, there’s an adventure to be had around every corner of Melbourne and beyond. Whether you’re venturing down the graffitied laneways, overlooking the city from the Melbourne Skydeck or discovering what the rest of the state has to offer, do it all at your pace in an Ace rental car.
