Take a break and get some sun in Ocean Grove, a popular surf town surrounded by renowned wineries, pristine beaches and golf courses. Hit the ocean waves, build a sandcastle with the kids or use the town as a base to explore countless attractions across the region.

Here comes the sun

Explore the unbroken stretch of sand that reaches out to the mouth of the Barwon River. Wander along the beautiful shoreline at Ocean Grove Main Beach or sign up for surfing and bodyboarding lessons. For a slow, relaxing afternoon, take a stroll in the flourishing nature reserve or pick up local art pieces and gourmet produce in the vibrant shopping district.

Refuel after a big day out on the water with a bite at one of the town's popular eateries, burger joints or cafes. Grab a beer and a burger at Blackman's Brewery or head to Oakdene Vineyards for relaxed bistro dining at the onsite restaurant.

Fun with the little ones
