Great ocean walk
Victoria | 1 Review | July 12, 2010Walking by the ocean is always considered serene picturesque. Shown in films and is one of those things, when done in real feels really good.
The great ocean walk is something that a lot of people have on their to do list.
Its not just a super way of walking along some historic beach or anything, the great ocean walk is s walk along the west coast of Victoria’s beach. The coast line is beautiful , spectacular and more than dramatic.
The beach is filled with forest gullies, rocky cliffs and is also a host to a variety of bird and wildlife.
The walk ideally starts at Apollo bay not because it’s the best thing to see or anything, just that it is located at the beginning. As you continuing your walk , you would come to blanket bay where this section passes through the Otway national park with great hotels deal.
Be sure to catch the castle coves and its towering cliffs. This place has also been of great archaeological importance. A lot of researchers and archaeologists come here to review the site.
Get your surf board along as you come across Johanna beach and Wreck beach which are some of the best surfing beaches in the entire region.
One of the most stunning sites to check out in the region is the ‘Twelve apostles‘. These are about 12 huge rocks on the coast that stand out and look just spectacular. People on this walk have this as the best site to watch.
While on the walk, which has been specifically designed to pass through towns, and different cultural places. You can either walk the entire path or you could cut it short. This is completely unto you. Although the entire walk is pretty good.
The walk is alongside the ocean so you pass through many secluded areas, shops and places you can pick up do some sightseeing or shopping. There are about seven camp sites along th route with great hotels deal.
The track has extensive Eco – friendly facilities. And has sites of historical and cultural significance.
The stretches for about one hundred and four kilo meters. And ends at Glenample homestead. This is where the twelve apostles are.
There are travel and tour operators who give guided tours.
The rack is made is such a way that it hugs the coastline.
Along the way, get your camera out and start clicking pictures of the most amazing regional wildlife including koalas, wallabies, echidnas, reptiles, birds, snakes, wasps and leeches.
