Great Ocean Road Drive - 12 Apostles

Hi,

My brother drove us to Warrnambool for an overnight stay before we went onto the Great Ocean Drive from Port Campbell back to Geelong.

One of the most spectacular coastal drives in the world is the Great Ocean Road Drive in Victoria. The view of world-famous 12 Apostles provides one of the highlight along this very, very scenic drive.

The Twelve Apostles are probably the most famous formations off the coast of Victoria. Over the years they have become the state's most potent advertising image. The reality does not disappoint. The 'stacks', as they are known, are vertically jointed and flat-bedded limestone. Some of the largest stacks stand 65 metres above sea-level. They are best photographed in the early morning.

Here are a few photos but I actually took quite a lot of photos there....

We have the sun in in the right direction so this photo came out very well.

I suggest that you should visit this place before 12 noon else the sun will be in your face... look at the next few photos and you will see what I mean.

The sun was very bright and shining into the camera lens so we have to use flash to brighten up our faces but the apostles in the background looked a dark.

This photo was taken when the sun went into the clouds and from a higher lookout too.

They have constructed boardwalk to ensure the safety of the visitors. Fantastic scenery.... It may looked sunny but the temperature is below 20C and the wind was very cold...!!!
