A Great Easter Break

The Great Ocean Road in Victoria is known as one of the best drives in Australia, if not the world. Its dramatic coastal scenery, wild weather, amazing wildlife and stunning bushland makes for an experience like no other.

Despite it being just a couple of hours drive from our home, we rarely visit this spot. That may change in the future, having been reminded of how Great it is - and having found a couple of perfect camping locations.

Here is our Easter break on the Great Ocean Road...

It is a beautiful part of Aus, my hubby's family used to camp down that way every year as he was growing up, and then they moved here to Perth and never went back. Next time we are over that way I want to go down there again, the last time was about 3 years ago. Great photos and you all looked very rugged up so maybe a little chilly? Thanks for sharing your photos.

It does look cold! But it also looks like you had a really gorgeous time. Love those blistery cold coastal winds

We drove along the Great Ocean Road about 12 years ago when we drove from the west to the east coast - i do remember it being breathtaking. We have an amazing country, don't we?

Great shots glad you had a good time, we went down late last year and loved it, we do forget how beautifull that section of our coast line can be.
Thanks for bringing back good memories

My favourite place in the world. We used to make the drive once every few months before Miss A was born, really need to get back down there. Thanks for sharing. Am sure you've had a fabulous break. xx

I love that little sandy cove in the second photo, I could happily spend a whole summer there.
