Geelong Beaches nr. Geelong Geelong 2 Neighbours Melbourne Great Ocean Rd Great Ocean Rd 2 Great Ocean Rd 3 Coast (SW Vic) Tower Hill Coast (SE Sth Aus) Adelaide Barossa Inland Ad-Gee Gold Areas

Only 10 miles out of Geelong starts the famous GREAT OCEAN ROAD, which extends for over 250km along the SW coast of Victoria. As it's renowned for breathtaking scenery, we decided to drive along the road, and continue all the way up the coast as far as Adelaide, in South Australia (around 1,000km). We set off April 2nd on and encountered some terrible weather on the first day. Below shows a few of the places we stopped off at in the early stages.
