We booked our trip to Tasmania! We leave on Sunday and are very excited for the last 2 weeks left of our journey.
We eventually left Apollo Bay and got back on the road. We finally saw what we thought the GOR would look like – a road with sweeping views of the ocean along the drive. It didn’t take long to find the first great lookout. We sat there and really enjoyed the view of the ocean.
There was a road sign that was completely covered in stickers, so I decided to add one of my own that I had been carrying around since Queensland. It was a “Cut the glow, to help turtles go” sticker, so if you ever see it yourself one day – that was me! Mid-afternoon we stopped at a small coastal village called Lorne and took a nap on the beach.
I woke up and Willy was gone. I spotted him swimming in the waves; I didn’t recognize him without his cast.
It was getting late in the day so we continued on to our final destination. I decided to stop on the side of the road, near an area that had access to a beach. It turned out to be Fairhaven beach at Aireys Inlet (which is the Great Ocean Road’s best-kept secret). We walked along the beach towards the Split Point Lighthouse and back. Towards the end of the GOR, we found the roads to have more traffic than usual, and as we headed into Anglesea we remembered it was a long weekend! Good news is that everyday feels like a long weekend and we were able to find a spot to stay the night.
