Romantic Great Ocean Road Trip
Enjoy a whole day of scenic drives, fibre-rich lunch, oceanic sites and much more. A perfect way to reconnect with your special someone while taking in the breathtaking natural beauty of Melbourne all in one day.
- Start your romantic day trip with a leisurely drive along the Great Ocean Road, taking in the breathtaking coastlines, pristine beaches, and lush rainforests. You can make stops at places like Torquay, Apollo Bay, and the Twelve Apostles, all of which offer stunning views and picture-worthy scenes.
- Dine at a cozy local eatery for a taste of delicious Australian cuisine. After lunch, engage in a walk along the beach or even sneak in a quick surf if you're feel adventurous.
- As the day ends, settle down at a lookout, wrap a blanket around the two of you and hold hands waiting for the beautiful sunset. A perfect climax for the dreamy day trip.
Preparation steps:
- Make sure to book your vehicle in advance. Fuel up and check your wheels and tire pressure before your trip. Pack some snacks and drinks for the ride. Don't forget the blanket for the sunset wait.
- Check the weather for the day and dress accordingly. If it's sunny, don't forget the sunscreen and hats. If there's a chill in the air, bring warm clothing. Regardless of the weather, comfortable shoes are a must for the walks.
- Download a reliable map or GPS app on your phone. Even though the Great Ocean Road is well-signposted, it's always a good idea to have a backup plan.
Some tips:
- While there's no strict dress code for this date, comfort is key. Keep in mind that temperatures can change quickly, especially by the sea. Always pack an extra jacket, even on warmer days.
- Avoid peak travel times on the road to make the most of your day. Setting out earlier or later than the typical travel window could help you avoid heavy traffic, giving you more time to enjoy each other's company.
- Although there are many places to stop along the way for meals, consider packing some picnic foods. You'll find plenty of scenic spots along this stunning winding road where you can set up a romantic mini feast.
