the iconic Great Ocean Road isn’t just a scenic route — it’s one of the most iconic coastal journeys in Australia. From clifftop bends over the wild coastal edge to towering rainforest walks in the Otway Ranges, every stretch of road offers something different.

Whether you’re hitting the road solo or taking a guided trip with experienced operators like Autopia Tours, the experience is equal parts story, nature and discovery.

When I first set off from Torquay, I thought I knew what was coming — the famous limestone stacks, massive coastal walls and bus tours.

What I didn’t expect was a bakery pie in Anglesea feeling like salvation or the thunderous echo of Port Campbell Bay giving me goosebumps.

This drive demands patience — you can’t do it in a hurry, and you shouldn’t try. Every bend is worth a stop, every ocean view reminds you why this deserves to be savoured.
