Port Campbell Jetty
Port Campbell’s weathered jetty stands defiantly against the Southern Ocean, framed by towering limestone cliffs and often dwarfed by waves rolling over the offshore reef. This historic structure is more than a scenic spot – it’s a working pier where a crane lowers the local fishing fleet directly into the ocean, bringing the freshest catch to your plate within hours.
The jetty provides an ideal platform to watch the world go by, let the swell beneath your feet or cast a line from the jetty and try your luck catching a fish.
Breathe deep and watch a southern ocean swell lick its way along the cliff-line before expending itself in a sigh upon the sandy shore, or capture a stunning sunrise or sunset photo.
