Travel Tips - The Great Ocean Road
I can highly, highly recommend driving the Great Ocean Road in south-western Victoria. I would suggest going from east to west, and allowing more than one day to traverse from Lorne to Port Fairy (which is what I did, and there was plenty I didn't have time to stop and see).The Otways spilling down into the Southern Ocean is amazing.
Don't both with the lighthouse at Cape Otway if you're in a hurry - it's a 21 km detour of winding road with a gatehouse at the end that charges you money to see the lighthouse. Not what you want if all have time for is a quick squiz and a snapshot. (I didn't get either for my trouble)
