Be In Your Surf Coast Element
Where the road begins and the surf never stops.
The Surf Coast is where the Great Ocean Road begins and where a lot of people realise they're not in a hurry to get anywhere else. Torquay's surf culture, Bells Beach's legendary breaks, Anglesea's river and heath, Aireys Inlet's lighthouse, Lorne's famous main street backed by the Otways. Come and be in your Surf Coast element.
Be Reminded
There are coastlines that impress, and coastlines that stay with you. The Surf Coast manages both from the iconic surf breaks at Bells Beach to the sweeping bay views from Teddy’s Lookout above Lorne. Come and be reminded.
Be Active
This is the coast that put Australian surfing on the map, and watching the pros take on Bells Beach is a thrill whether you’ve ever stood on a board or not. Hike the Surf Coast Walk from Torquay to Aireys Inlet with the ocean beside you the whole way, or mountain bike through Anglesea.
Accommodation Packages
Be In Your Element in the Great Ocean Road region this winter by booking a 2-night package including a $100 Great Ocean Road Experience Card to spend during your stay.
Be Connected
Surf culture didn’t just happen here it was made here. The Australian National Surfing Museum in Torquay tells the full story, a lighthouse that’s been warning ships since 1891, and the kind of small-town stories that take a long walk to properly hear.
Be Indulged
From Torquay’s beachside cafés to Lorne’s iconic main street restaurant scene, the Surf Coast has always paired good food with a great view. Order the fish, find a table with a sea breeze, and let the afternoon go where it wants.
