Crowdy Head Lighthouse

From up here, the views stretch forever — ocean on one side, rolling green hills on the other, and the sky putting on a show as the light begins its nightly watch.

And if you’re here at the right time of year, keep your eyes on the horizon 🐋

This is one of those special spots where you can often see whales migrating along the coast… and we were lucky enough to spot a few while we there.

Built in 1878, this little lighthouse has guided ships for generations — and now it gives visitors front-row seats to one of nature’s best shows.

Slow sunsets, salty air and a little whale magic… doesn’t get much better than that 🤍

We love spots like this.

A good walk, water so clear you can see the rocks below, and boats cruising past while you’re just standing there taking it in.

Griffiths Island in Port Fairy was definitely worth the extra drive from the Great Ocean Road.

Port Fairy Lighthouse

Built in 1859, this bluestone lighthouse has guided ships safely into Port Fairy for over 160 years.

Standing at the entrance to the Moyne River, it once helped vessels navigate the wild waters of Bass Strait during the town’s busy whaling and trading days.

Small in height, mighty in history — still shining against the Southern Ocean.

Bathurst 12 Hour week 🏁

We’ve driven the Mountain and walked it more times than we can count.

You don’t truly understand how steep it is until you’ve rolled over the top in your own van or car.

Thought this weekend was a good time to reminisce and share a few shots from one of our laps around the Mount Panorama Circuit.

If you know, you know.

Ten of Our Favourite Stops Along the Great Ocean Road

There’s just something about this coastline… it’s wild, dramatic and completely unforgettable. These were the stops that made us pull over, slow down and just take it all in 👇

✨ Lorne Pier – Built in 1877, this historic pier stretches into the bay and is known for the most beautiful sunrises along the coast. The morning we arrived was overcast and stormy, but just as we stood there, the sun broke through the clouds at the perfect moment — pure magic.

✨ Memorial Arch (Eastern View) – The official gateway to the Great Ocean Road, built to honour the returned soldiers who constructed this 243km stretch after WWI. A photo stop with real history behind it.

✨ Teddy’s Lookout – One of the best panoramic views of the road hugging the cliffs, with the Southern Ocean stretching endlessly beyond. It’s the kind of view that makes you feel small in the best way.

✨ The Grotto – A hidden gem where a sinkhole, rock pool and ocean meet. Raw, powerful and constantly changing with the tides.

✨ Princetown Recreation Reserve – A quiet riverside stop near the Twelve Apostles. The perfect overnight location and a beautiful place to slow down and soak up the peaceful side of the coast.

✨ London Arch – Formerly known as London Bridge before part of it collapsed in 1990. A striking reminder of how this coastline is always evolving.

✨ The Razorback – Tall, sharp and dramatic — one of the most impressive limestone formations along this stretch.

✨ The Twelve Apostles – The icons. Limestone stacks rising up to 45 metres from the Southern Ocean, shaped by wind and waves over millions of years. Watching the sunset here is something we’ll never forget. Stay a little longer and you might even catch a glimpse of the local penguins heading in for the night.

✨ Gibson Steps – 86 steps carved into the cliff face leading down to beach level, where you can stand beside the towering stacks known as Gog & Mogag. Seeing them from below is a whole different perspective.

✨ The Gables – A dirt road drive followed by a short walk to one of the highest coastal cliff lookouts in Australia. Wild, windswept and absolutely worth it.

If you’re planning this drive, don’t rush it. Pull over often, stay for golden hour, and let the coastline do its thing. 🤍

Cape Otway Lighthouse 🤍

Standing proudly on the edge of the cliffs since 1848, watching over one of the most rugged and unforgiving stretches of coastline in Australia.

They call it a Beacon of Hope — and you can feel why.

There’s something humbling about seeing it from above. So small against the cliffs. So strong against the sea. A quiet reminder that even in wild conditions, light still finds a way.

If you’re planning on travelling the Great Ocean Road, make sure you add Cape Otway to your list. It’s one of those stops that truly makes you pause and take it all in.

We explored the grounds and soaked in the history — but we also took it one step further and did the Cape Otway helicopter ride 🚁✨ Seeing the lighthouse from the sky gave us a completely different perspective. The cliffs look even more dramatic, the ocean feels endless, and the lighthouse stands there like it owns the coastline.

Definitely one of the most iconic lighthouses we’ve visited 🌊✨

Have you been to Cape Otway? Or is it still on your list?

🚐✨ We joined the fun and now we’ve got our own caricature to prove it 😍

From dusty outback roads to beachside sunsets, drone flights and campfire nights — this is us in cartoon form and honestly… it couldn’t be more accurate 😂

What do you think — does it capture us? 👀

A peaceful walk along the V Wall at Nambucca Heads 🌊

Ocean breeze, painted rocks, and one of the most beautiful coastal walks on the Mid North Coast.

Sometimes the simple moments make the best memories.

Have you walked the V Wall at Nambucca Heads before? 💙
