Great Ocean Road - Part 2

Yesterday I drove the Great Ocean Road from Apollo Bay to Mount Gambier. AWESOME & Breathtaking!

This took me through the Otway Forest, to Cape Otway, and through beautiful farmland all the way to the 12 Apostles, Loch Ard Gorge, The Arch, London Bridge, the Bay of Martyrs, and the Bay of Islands.  There were several other little stops along the way and cute port towns with cafés and small beaches.  

I wish I had chosen to stop somewhere around the Bay of Islands or Warrnambool instead.  The reasons for this is that everything that is worth seeing is along this stretch.  Literally every half mile, I was pulling over to look at the view.  I think it's better to do this portion of the the route in one day.  I had an extra 3 hours to drive after Bay of Islands (finishing there at (5:30pm).

The pictures say enough!
