Driving and camping on The Great Ocean Road with our dog 🐶

THE GREAT OCEAN ROAD with our dog!
We were really looking forward to driving the great ocean road, it’s one of those bucket list items for many people.
We were a bit unsure how we would go visiting the area with our dog Scout.
We quickly realised that almost all beaches were not dog friendly after December 1. 😐 We were there just after this unfortunately.
This meant that there were quite a few beautiful looking spots we missed or only stopped for a quick look.
We headed to the lighthouse in Aireys inlet (made famous from the show ‘round the twist’) and then to Great ocean Rd mini golf. (dogs must be kept on lead)
After Chris won by a massive lead we went to the pub for lunch and a cold drink. The pub has a beautiful big outdoor area with shade, dog bowls and a friendly resident husky named Scout.
After lunch we continued on through the memorial arch to Lorne beach (dogs not allowed) and Teddys lookout, where we took in the windy views and went for a walk where we saw a blue tongue lizard!
Next up was Carisbrook waterfall which is a pretty easy walk up to the beautiful falls and back to the carpark.
We then headed inland to Beauchamp Falls camp area to camp and walked down from there to the falls (walk is about 2.5kms(some of the steps were hard for our dogs paws)
The next morning we headed to Gorge chocolates and got ourselves some yummy chocolates and a delicious White mint hot Chocolate 🤤
This was followed by a visit to a lookout near Port Campbell and fish and chips at Frying Nemo’s 🐟
We checked out Worm Bay and Boggy Creek Reserve before heading into Timboon to see the Distillery and out a bit further to Dairylicious fudge! 😋 We got some ice creams at Timboon ice creamery and then headed to camp at Timboon rec reserve for the night.
We had Scout booked in with a pet sitter for day 3 but she pulled out at the last minute leaving us to scramble to make alternate arrangements. The community facebook page lead me to Kim (a lovely lady to looked after Scout for us) for the day) 💕
We set off to do the 4WD track on old coach road (very easy drive along the coast) then to Gibson steps which was closed 😞 It was very windy and rainy and cold weather.
We headed to the 12 Apostles Helicopter tours and treated ourselves to a flight over the coastline! OMG this was such a great experience! We got to see the 12 Apostles and london bridge through the rain 💕
We returned to pick up Scout and headed to camp at Panmure free-camp before heading into Warrnambool in the morning.
All in all it was such an amazing adventure and we had a wonderful time exploring what the area had to offer!
