Torquay

Torquay

A favourite holiday destination for Victorians since the early 1900s, Torquay is a picturesque coastal town only minutes away from some of the most beautiful beaches in Australia.

As the official start of the Great Ocean Road, Torquay is overflowing with relaxed seaside culture. Walking along the main streets, an abundance of restaurants, cafes, and bars as well as major surf brand retail stores will keep you well fed and well-dressed.

For those feeling inspired by nearby Bells Beach – home of the Rip Curl Pro Surfing Classic – a number of local surf schools can help you catch a wave. Or, for those who would prefer to stay on dry land, the Torquay Golf Club features a challenging 18-hole golf course with panoramic coastal views.
