The Great Ocean Road is one of the most scenic coastal roads you could drive on in the world. It stretches for 243 kilometres from Torquay to Geelong. There are many tours ranging from 1 day to 3 days. Other tourist landmarks along the Great Ocean Road include The Blow Holes, The Grotto, Thunder Caves and many lookout points into the Bass Strait Sea.
A popular attraction along The Great Ocean Road is the Twelve Apostles. These are limestone stack formations just off the shores of Campbell National Park. The Apostles were formed by erosion, which stand at 45 metres high. Strangley these stacks became known as The Twelve Apostles even though there were only ever nine stacks. In July 2005 one of the stacks fell into the sea and today there remains only eight stacks. Enjoy the many walking trails or take a helicopter ride to appreciate a panoramic view.
I had 3 weeks hoilday, and wanted to see my brother and family in Australia. My brother lives in Bondi, so thought it best to stay in this area.
I stayed at the Swiss Grand Bondi hotel on Bondi Beach which was fabulous. Lovely spacious rooms with small separate room off bedroom and great rooftop swimming pool and spa. Bondi beach has great beach/walks/restaurants/bars/shops and is only 20mins from city centre, so we had best of both words. Were able to go to city centre to do harbour cruise, city tour and wander around the city & harbour area taking it all in.
After Sydney we flew to Hamilton Island and spent a few days at the Reef View Hotel. Hamilton is great with loads to do, nice restaurants, good sailing trips. Highlight was sailing trip to Whitehaven beach, stunning.
Everything was arranged by Australia Travel Centre, top class, Thanks for knowledge and professionalism.
