So much to do at this park - get lost in the maze, go on the flying foxes, play in the various playgrounds, watch the boats on the river or have a go - motorised for a relaxed ride or paddle boats for the more energetic. The beach was a short walk across the road and over the dune.

Bay of Islands

A land and seascape sculpted by the elements over millennia. Arches, islands and rock stacks are dotted along a wild coastline of beach coves and spectacular lookouts. The wild Southern Ocean has carved a stunning collection of rock stacks and sheltered bays with clifftop walks, scenic lookouts and small beach coves near Peterborough along the Great Ocean Road. Perhaps overshadowed by the Port Campbell and the Twelve Apostles down the road, the Bay of Islands Coastal Park offers just equally spectacular experience without the crowds. Dogs are welcome on a lead at Sandy Cove near Murnanes Bay.

Spectacular scenery, really worth seeing. 40 minutes west of Port Campbell and the 12 apostles. Warrnambool is 35 minutes further west. Don't miss this site, way better than the Apostles and you don't have the crowds.

This hotel is 5 star. From the lovely staff to the great views to the great amenities, this place was a fantastic mini honeymoon. We stayed in room 401 and we had amazing ocean views with a spa bath and views of the attached hot springs. The hot springs are a great addition to with 15 pools ranging in temperature and super relaxing to go alongside this amazing comfortable hotel. The staff were so lovely and helpful and made this experience all the more better. Have recommended to others to come here on a weekend away.

Warrnambool Botanic Gardens

Reviewed By daniellebI1549FD - Melbourne, Australia

Kids I know love climbing on the cannon or climbing around the giant fig trees. We can easily spend a couple of hours here. Especially if we have a picnic with friends. There are also several events held here. My favourite being Wunta Fest with an outdoor movie at the end of January each year.

Foreshore Promenade

Reviewed By QuEee2 - Officer, Australia

When in Warrnambool you just have to take advantage of the Foreshore Promenade - it is a great walk, but it also stimulates the senses - the aromas, the seaspray, the sun, the surf, just a delightfully maritime experience...

Thunder point Coastal Reserve

Reviewed By sm05060

This is where the locals go to either sit in their cars or get out onto the viewing platform to view the sunset. Also a great spot to take a walk along the designated paths. A beautiful and natural place

Lady Bay

Reviewed By platypus150 - Melbourne, Australia

Lady Bay Beach is wide, sandy, and patrolled by surf life savers. It is somewhat protected by the breakwater from the biggest surf and is easily accessed dfrom the town by public bus, car or walking. Lake Pertobe is behind the dunes and the Foreshore trail runs along the top. My friends were surprised when the tide came in quickly and washed their shoes from the sand into the sea
