Apollo Bay

A pleasant small fishing port

120 km South West of Melbourne. Pleasant small fishing port in a picturesque setting with some great surf-pounded beaches nearby. Before saying goodbye to them, you might also fancy going on one of the local fishing trips (tackle provided) or visiting Otway National Park (www.parkweb.vic.gov.au/explore/parks/great-otway-national-park) down the coast. This park contains some fine rainforest (watered by more than 200 days of rain a year); the Cape Otway lighthouse; and some excellent views.
