    • The Flagstaff Maritime Village consists of old wooden buildings, set around an artificial port. It's mostly a static display of the time period of the late 1800’s.

    • The exhibits at the Museum attached to the Maritime Village include items recovered from shipwrecks in the area.
    My very favourite is a large glazed pottery peacock (about 5 feet high) which washed ashore in its packing case, days after the Loch Ard tragedy, miraculously intact.
    It had been made in England especially for the opening of the Melbourne Exhibition Building.
    Over 180 ships are believed to have been wrecked along the Great Ocean Rd.

    • “Shipwrecked” is a very new attraction for Warrnambool. It's a multi million dollar sound and light show spectacular done with lasers, illusion, mist effects, giant water screens and more, and takes you back in time to the old Seafaring days. It also tells the famous tale of the wreck of the Loch Ard ship which hit a reef near Port Campbell in 1878, with only 2 survivors out of 54 aboard. These were an 18 year old cabin boy & a female passenger, also aged 18, who he managed to rescue.

    • Even when it isn't warm, as it wasn't when we were last here, you can still enjoy the beach and hope to catch some surfers or watch the boats...

     The tripod ball thing in Warrnambool is an old water tower that was used for a sprinkler system at Fletcher Jones. They don't use it anymore.    		BiancaVDH Sat Jul 10, 2004 17:50 UTC
