A fun-filled holiday for all
There is plenty to see and do around the Bellarine Peninsula and we highly recommend staying in Ocean Grove. Being close to some of the aforementioned places you could visit and with the convenience of amenities in the area, staying in the town is hands down one of the best choices. Be sure to make your stay reservations early if you are coming during the peak summer holiday period.
