Great Ocean Road is a winding road along western coast of Victoria, Australia. Regarded as one of the most beautiful coastal lines in the world. It offers stunning ocean views, beachside activities and laidback coastal towns.
The biggest tourist attraction is The Twelve Apostles, originally 12 fully separately big cliffs (in the size of high buildings), along the shore. Recently only 7 left, whilst others were collapsed naturally because of wind and wave erosion over a thousand years! (So, you really have to go there before all are collapsed!)
And the other cliffs which are also very attractive are The London Bridge, The Loch Ard Gorge, The Razorback, The Blowhole and The Elephant Rock.
My favourite one is The Razorback.
It is a giant cliff with sharp edges and bumps along its back, which are caused by wind-blown spray, which hardens small areas of rock. The softer rock around these erodes away, leaving an uneven surface.
This is really beautiful places to visit, spectacular view! So, if you have any chance to visit Australia and Victoria especially, don't miss the chance to visit Great Ocean Road, you will be amazed!!
