Renowned for its natural wonders, this coastal route is
home to beloved creatures like koalas, kangaroos, wallabies
and
nd echidnas. Just as magnificent are p
rimeval rainforests
primeval
and towering limestone sea stacks that beg to be explored.

Perhaps no other scenic
drive brings the 'road warrior'
spirit to life like Australia's
Great Ocean Road.
Though the Great Ocean Road officially begins on B100 in
Torquay, 60 miles southwest of Melbourne, it's in Anglesea
where Australian icons come in to plain view. This seaside
community is known for the ever-popular sport of golf. But the
resident kangaroos at Anglesea Golf Club don't care. They brazenly
bask in the sun, have a scratch, and tend to their babies' needs
right on the fairway as golfers practice their driving skills. The next
notable town is Lorne, where a side trip on the C151 road takes you
into the Great Otway National Park and through a quintessential
Australian woodland. Wallabies roam the dense forest, as koalas
survey their domain from a favorite perch.
If getting close to cuddly koalas is what's desired, stop at the
Kafe Koala in Kennett River. The cluster of trees adjacent to the
cafe is where you can have an up close encounter with these darling
marsupials. The koalas here are wild, but they're habituated to
people. Brilliantly colored parrots also find this spot to be a haven. To
see koalas in a more pristine, natural setting, walk the Grey River Road
(also adjacent to the cafe), and then backtrack to the B100.
