Great Ocean Road Story

Inside Lorne Visitor Centre, this permanent exhibition of multimedia displays, videos and books offers informative background to the Great Ocean Road's remarkable construction that took place from 1919–32.

There's also the opportunity to get yourself superimposed into a picture of an old automobile chugging along the magnificent road.
