Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

There’s so much to see and explore along the Great Ocean Road but this iconic Beaty is a must see along the way. It’s crazy to see how Mother Nature carves her Artwork along the coastline leaving a contrast of colours and layers as she goes. Although the day was heavily overcast it still was an amazing site... easily accessible and lots of photo opportunities

Hard to say I have seen anything else quite like this elsewhere. The Twelve Apostles bay is commanding and iconic, but not the oly attraction
Keep going along to experience Loch Ard Gorge, London Bridge, The Grotto and more and you will not be dissapointed

Stunning views of the apostles, easy walk to see them. Best of all it's a free activity to do with kids

My husband and I visited 12 Apostles a couple of weeks ago and were not disappointed. They are truly amazing. Visited at sunset so even more spectacular. Lots of people but we got there early to get a spot and there is a bit of a walk out to lookout but certainly a stunning lookout. There is a café and clean toilets in the car park area so very well set up.
An amazing experience and certainly not to be missed.

Sure, it's crowded but if you go early or late in the day they aren't quite as bad, and no matter how crowded, you can still see without any problem. Sunset is the best view, but it is stunning no matter when or what the weather. Be prepared for a five minute walk to get from the carpark along level concrete paths with an upper path for the disabled. For a different view, go down the Gibson Steps (just a minute before the main tourist area) to the actual beach where there are two apostles on that side for memorable photos and a ground-level view. You can't access the other beach to my knowledge. Amazing stuff - do not miss them!

Despite it being busy there is ample parking, a cafe shop and clean toilets. You have to walk to the view points but the paths are good, clear and safe. There is room for everyone to get photos and enjoy the views. It is free and a stunning location.

This is worth doing as it's one of the must-sees in this part of the Great Ocean Road. There is a large car park with a very tacky little gift/coffee shop and you walk across to a good viewing point. We were here off-season and it was absolutely heaving with people. Hopefully not too many more of the Apostles will collapse into the sea!
