At the heart of Lorne is Mountjoy Parade, the town’s vibrant main street, dotted with inviting cafés and charming boutique shops. This lively strip exudes a Mediterranean charm, enhanced by the wide foreshore that stretches from the bustling café scene to the soft, white sands of the patrolled beach. Spanning two kilometres, Lorne’s beach is ideal for swimming during the warmer months and is flanked by grassy lawns, towering gum trees, and well-equipped picnic and barbecue spots.

Journey along the Great Ocean Road—celebrated as one of the most scenic coastal drives in the world—leading to the awe-inspiring 12 Apostles. For panoramic views of the coastline and lush hinterland, make your way to Teddy’s Lookout at the southern end of George Street.

Nature lovers will also relish a visit to the nearby Otway National Park. Whether you prefer hiking, cycling, or four-wheel driving, the park offers countless ways to immerse yourself in its natural splendour. Don’t miss the majestic Erskine Falls, where water tumbles into a lush fern-filled gully, creating a truly breathtaking sight.
