The Ultimate Great Ocean Road Campervan Itinerary (3–7 Days)

Couple relaxing in camper van by a scenic lake, embracing travel and nature.

Why drive the Great Ocean Road by campervan?

The Great Ocean Road is Australia’s most iconic coastal drive: surf towns, rainforest, waterfalls, wildlife, and the dramatic limestone stacks of the Twelve Apostles. A campervan gives you sunrise freedom at lookouts, budget-friendly stays, and flexibility when weather or waves change the plan.
