Overview

Watching the sunset over The 12 Apostles is a breath taking experience as the sky changes colours against the towering rock formations, and stunning coastal vistas.

Travelling the Great Ocean Road to see the Sunset, you will still marvel in the 240 kilometres of stunning scenery and ocean views, incredible wildlife including koalas, kangaroos and native birdlife. As the day progresses, we pass through the quaint seaside townships of Torquay, Airey’s Inlet, Lorne, & Apollo Day, the lush green rain forests of the Otway Ranges, the wild Shipwreck Coast and finally the breathtaking rock formations of the 12 Apostles, Loch Ard Gorge, & Gibson Steps.

Throughout the day, your guide will share the history, adventures, tales & stories of the Great Ocean Road. You have the freedom to customise your journey throughout the day to create, explore and experience the Great Ocean Road Sunset on your own private tour.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
