This is the most visited and most photographed area of the
Great Ocean Road. The coastline that stretches for several kilometers near
Port Campbell consists of impressive cliffs overlooking a raging ocean. Over time, the sea has carved the rocks turning them into a set of canyons, arches and caves. The erosion rate is estimated at two centimeters per year. The most famous rock formations are the
Twelve Apostles which stand in the middle of the ocean. Today only six are still "alive". In the neighborhood, do not miss the
Gibsons Steps that let you walk down onto the beach and close to one of the apostles.
Loch Ard Gorge and
London Arch (formerly London Bridge) are also to be seen.
