Port Campbell National Park
Der Port Campbell National Park liegt 285 km westlich von Melbourne im australischen Bundesstaat Victoria und bildet den Höhepunkt der Great Ocean Road und des great Ocean Walk. Er schützt die Küstenregion zwischen Princetown und Peterborough. Das vorgelagerte Meeresgebiet mit seinen Inseln liegt im Twelve Apostles Marine National Park und der angrenzende nordwestliche Küstenstreifen mit seinen Buchten im Bay of Islands Coastal Park. Die Erosion der Steilküste hat hier eine grandiose Kulisse geschaffen, deren Höhepunkt die Skulpturen der Twelve Apostles sind. Der Nationalpark wurde nach dem schottischen Walfänger Alexander Campbell benannt, der auch für den Namen der sich hier befindlichen Stadt Port Campbell steht.

It's a long drive to get here but given the Apostles are disappearing, it's worth it! I was told to get there for sunrise or sunset and sunset didn't disappoint! Also got to see an echidna up close, & we love echidna! So glad we got to enjoy this WITHOUT the tourist buses, which I've heard are a deterrent....hence, it took us 11yrs to visit!

This is the place to park up and set as your main stop to see all the wonderful and amazing sites on the great ocean road. The information desk are located near the car park. The twelve apostles are located very close by and the Gibson stairs are a walking distance away.

Best time to capture nature at its best. Visiting 12 apostles during sunset time gives you all peace and forever love for nature.

Glorious in any weather, the wildness of the waves scaling the cliffs and the sea spray and foam spraying onto the the paths above, definitely worthy of its title "the shipwreck coast".

An unexpected natural harbour on this long forbidding coast. A small community sheltered beneath the cliffs. Highly picturesque. Remote. Well provided with small hotels and restaurants. A touch of alternative lifestyle. We got there from Warrnambool in the teeth of an icy gale.

Plenty of parking and signage. Couple of chairs. Nice easy walk. Take an umbrella. Weather changes quickly No drones.
