Twilight Beach
The most popular beach on the Great Ocean Drive, a white-sand bay cradled by granite islets and reefs, once voted Australia's best beach.
The beach is partly enclosed by granite islands and reefs on either side, forming a relatively calm bay. The white sand contrasts sharply with the pale green water, and in 2006 the beach was named Australia's best beach. Lifeguards are on duty on summer weekends, making it suitable for swimming and sunbathing, and there are car parks, toilets, and showers by the shore. About 10 km from town, it is the most convenient swimming beach near the city, and the sunset here is just as beautiful in the evening.
