Iconic Places on The Great Ocean Road Tour

Here are some of the places to be visited on the Great Ocean Road tour:

• The Twelve Apostles

By the Great Ocean Road is the historical Twelve Apostles, Victoria. It’s a place that has existed for millions of years. The naturally erected stacks of limestone are an enchanting sight to behold and it is adorned around by the coastline. The Twelve Apostles used to be eight stacks of rock; now it’s seven. This does not make it anything less of a place worth visiting. Needless to say, it’s a hot tourist site attracting tons of people daily. It was previously referred to as “the Pinnacle.”

• London Bridge

Another gorgeous place to be visited en route to the Great Ocean Road is a place formerly called the London Bridge; now, it’s called the London Arch. Without stopping by to appreciate this wonder of nature, your tour is incomplete. One fascinating thing about the London Bridge is that it used to connect to the mainland before its collapse. Now, its relic is a chunk separately embedded in the heart of the coast. The arch is flanked about by a mass array of terrestrial forest collections on one side and the spread of the ocean on the other side. It’s a place worth your time on this expedition.

• Loch and Gorge

This iconic site is just three minutes drive due west of the Twelve Apostles. The gorge bears the sad memory of the shipwreck of Loch Arc, where only two out of 54 passengers survived. This is why the two disconnected rocks earmarking the gorge are named after these two people until today – Tom and Eva. Apart from its sad antecedence, it’s a perfect place to enjoy the fresh evening ocean breeze. It’s indeed a spectacular site that gives tourists access through its stairs to survey its environment. The gorge is also home to the rarely sighted Rufous bristlebird and also makes a fine location for films. Some scenes from movies like the 1982 “The Pirate Movie” and the 1999 “Journey to the Centre of the Earth” were filmed at the gorge.

• Apollo Bay

En route the Great Ocean Road, at the foot of the Otway Hills, is the seaside village, Apollo Bay. Apollo is home to some of the best attraction sights that you can also add to your checklist. You find places like the Mariner Lookout to take a holistic view of the village, its coast and harbor, and the historical Lake Elizabeth. Stopping by on a Saturday gives more thrills, and you can easily visit the foreshore market. On the Great Ocean Road tour, usually we make a stop at Apollo Bay for our tourists to enjoy lunch.
