Great Ocean Road, Australia - State of Victoria

Victoria is a very beautiful State in Australia with dramatic landscape, friendly people, snow mountains during winter and it is very easy to move around.

The Great Ocean Road of Victoria State is one of the most spectacular coastline in the world and not to be missed when you are in Australia. The coast mainly consists of sheer cliffs formed by erosion of the sea and wind, resulting in breathtaking nature structures being formed.

The most famous of these are the 12 Apostles and "London Bridge". Let me share with you my trip to the State of Victoria in Australia. with special emphasis on the Great Ocean Road as well as surrounding areas. Hope you will find the information useful, and perhaps give your comments and ratings.

If you are interested to visit Phillips Island to watch the penguins, do drop by at my VT Phillips Island page for more information.
