Caption: CAPE OTWAY The Great Ocean Road is 243 km of winding coastal scenery along the Australian state of Victoria.
Just a few hours outside the city of Melbourne, it's the perfect day trip for exploring its iconic headlands, beaches and surf.
But wait, there's more.
At the southernmost point of this iconic route lies the Cape Otway lighthouse and Otway National Park.
And somewhere in between, you'll find the koalas that call this place home.
