About Great Ocean Road
The Great Ocean Road follows Victoria's south-west coast for about 240 kilometres, past surf beaches, rainforest and the Twelve Apostles.
Returned soldiers built the road between 1919 and 1932 as a memorial to those killed in the First World War. It begins near Torquay, where Bells Beach is one of Australia's famous surf breaks, and ends near Warrnambool, clinging to cliffs above the Southern Ocean and dropping into seaside towns such as Lorne and Apollo Bay.
