Apollo Bay is at the very centre of an exciting touring region which includes the Great Ocean Road and the Great Otway National Park. There are lots of things to see and do around and about while staying in the township.
It's possible to walk along the beautiful beach all the way to Skenes Creek, some 5km away. An easier walk of only 2.5km terminates where the Wild Dog Creek enters the ocean.
Spend a few moments chatting to the anglers who you will undoubtedly encounter when you reach the Wild Dog Creek. We've all heard the legendary fisherman's tale about the one that got away!
In the late winter and early spring Southern Right Whales visit the coast of South West Victoria to give birth. They are very of ten sighted off the beaches at Skenes Creek and Apollo Bay.
The Great Ocean Road Visitor Information Centre on the foreshore at Apollo Bay keeps a log of whale sightings during the season and a visit there in the morning before setting off for your days activities will help you identify where you might best be able to make your own sighting.
