Located just a short 4 minute drive to Apollo Bay or if you prefer, why not take the more leisurely, scenic 2.9 km walk along the walking track that meanders beside the ocean from Marengo to Apollo Bay. For those who are adventurous why not visit the Otway Fly where you can enjoy panoramic views of the Otways or try walking the Great Ocean Walk for exceptional views of our coast line and the hinterland. If you prefer more sedate activities, enjoy the Cape Otway Light Station or the Marengo Reefs Marine Sanctuary.
