Take my advice, you must bring your loved one to drive the Great Ocean Road

Visiting Melbourne, I recommend that you must go for a self-drive on the Great Ocean Road, known as the most beautiful coastal road, and it's really good. A typical self-drive takes about 2-3 days, we were not in a hurry and took four days to slowly enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. 【Itinerary】 ✅D1 Hobart-Melbourne-Geelong Town Directly fly from Hobart to Melbourne, pick up the car from the airport, and start our self-driving journey, the first day is to drive to Geelong Town. ✅D2 Geelong Beach-Anglesea Beach-Lorne Town-Apollo Bay-Cape Otway Lighthouse-Apollo Bay 1️⃣ Geelong Beach: A good place for leisurely walks, with many puppet people, it's quite nice to stroll around 2️⃣ Anglesea Beach: A rather average beach, you can skip it 3️⃣ Lorne Town: The first town you enter on the Great Ocean Road, there is a nice viewing platform where you can overlook the entire town 4️⃣ Cape Otway Lighthouse: A lighthouse standing on the edge of a cliff, the wind is particularly strong, and you can see koalas and kangaroos there 5️⃣ Apollo Bay: Also a town on the Great Ocean Road, you can choose to have lunch and stay here, close to the Twelve Apostles ✅D3 Twelve Apostles-Loch Ard Gorge-London Bridge-Bay of Martyrs-Whale Watching Platform-Warrnambool 6️⃣ Twelve Apostles: A must-visit attraction on the Great Ocean Road, now only seven apostles remain. 7️⃣ Loch Ard Gorge: A gorge named after a shipwreck, with a love story of Shipwreck Bay, where you can see the spectacular sea 8️⃣ London Bridge: Just like the rock formation of London Bridge, it's quite spectacular 9️⃣ Bay of Martyrs: Located inside Loch Ard Gorge, named after the shipwreck that claimed 52 lives 1️⃣0️⃣ Whale Watching Platform: In the town of Warrnambool, you can watch whales in winter 1️⃣1️⃣ Warrnambool: The end of the Great Ocean Road, you can choose to stay here for one night, it's quite a large town ✅D4 Port Fairy-Griffiths Island 1️⃣2️⃣ Port Fairy: Also called Fairy Port, staying in Warrnambool, it's about a 40-minute drive to Port Fairy, once listed as one of the most livable small towns in the world, it's really comfortable 1️⃣3️⃣ Griffiths Island: Next to Port Fairy, the island is only accessible on foot, you can see kangaroos, and there is an ancient lighthouse. Many people surf here. ✅D5 Return to Melbourne On the last day, drive directly from Warrnambool back to Melbourne 【How to go】 You can fly directly to Melbourne from within the country, the Great Ocean Road is right next to Melbourne, self-driving is the best choice 【Where to stay】 For a self-drive on the Great Ocean Road, it's best to stay for two nights for a more leisurely experience, the first night can be spent in Apollo Bay, and the second night in Port Campbell or Warrnambool 【Transportation】 There is no public transportation on the Great Ocean Road, self-driving is the best choice. A domestic driver's license plus a translation is enough to rent a car, remember to buy full insurance
