Well, we said that the Great Ocean Drive at Esperance could rival it, but we stand corrected. As far as coastal drives go, nothing can beat this. We began our experience at Portland and finished at Torquay, although officially the GOR begins just out of Warrnambool. Our coffee stop in Portland was purely accidental, as we ignored Phillipa's (GPS...

After a few splendid days in Melbourne, we began our trip down the Great Ocean Road via Torquay: the Capital of Surfing. Yes we did see a lot of surfers on the beach. no, we didnt try our hand at surfing as it was FREEZING!

We had just gott...
