The koala population here is particularly strong and numerous sightings are guaranteed. After lunch proceed through the spectacular Otway Ranges, where you make a stop to enjoy a stroll in the cool temperate rain forest at Maits Rest.
Then onwards to the world famous Port Campbell National Park and its iconic array of rock formations. Be awestruck by the majestic monoliths of the Twelve Apostles. This is where the helicopter ride takes place when you visit the Twelve Apostles. Just down the road is the heart of the Shipwreck Coast, the Loch Ard Gorge where 52 lives were lost and only 2 souls survived the wreck of the Loch Ard in 1878.
Your final sightseeing destination is the collapsed London Bridge, where two holiday makers were stranded when the first arch collapsed in 1990.
