Since we went on the weekend, here's my obligatory shot from the Twelve Apostles. It was fairly great weather for seeing the locale.

Terrorists or heroes? The Squad’s controversial legacy still divides historians. Read the book and decide yourself.

This is one of the typical plants in the area. Its common name is Cushion Bush or Leucophyta Brownii.
-
The Twelve (or so) Apostles are made of limestone which is a soft rock that is prone to significant erosion over time. The coastline is constantly changing. We found this rock with some holes, inside which some plants had taken hold. These holes have possibly been created by rain.
-
The small blue bird in the tree in this photo is a [edit] Superb Fairy Wren. It is hard to photograph because it jumps around very quickly.
In the low, thick bush next to the path were a lot of birds. We only saw a couple, but we could hear beautiful chirping and twittering all along the walk.
[Re edit: thank you to @ecoscore for telling me I had identified the bird incorrectly!]
-
Have a look at this Tiger Snake cruising next to the path walked by hundreds of people while we were there.
-
See that dark brown thing projecting out over the tip of the rock on the left of the photo? That is actually a very large, cantilevered viewing platform that can hold a lot of people. We walked out there.
Be prepared for a lot of wind when stepping outside your vehicle on the Great Ocean Road. Today was a blustery westerly wind. I was very glad for the hood of my jacket.
-
Each column of rock in the ocean is an 'apostle'. There never were 12 Apostles - there were fewer. But who cares about numerical accuracy? Not the names of these rock formations it seems. I wonder if they were someone religious seizing a chance to remind people of a Bible story?
One thing that I have noticed along the Great Ocean Road is that often there is no explanation of why some feature got its name. Or maybe that would just prompt an awkward conversation?
-
The Twelve (approximately) Apostles are a major tourist attraction drawing thousands of visitors from around the world. The government has spent a lot of money building a large carpark for cars, vans and buses on the inland side of the road. It has constructed a sealed, smooth path that goes under the road to new viewing platforms that cater for a large number of tourists. There are even wheelchairs available for hire, but my mother did the 1km return walk with her walker.
I am grateful that so much care has been put into making this an accessible experience.

We did some more of the Great Ocean Road today. A highlight was seeing the Twelve or so Apostles. These are rock formations which are in the sea, close to the coast. So you would understand my confusion when I could see the tourist viewing platform and some of the rock formations, but a road sign said the view of the Twelve or so Apostles was inland...

EDIT —australia institute has issued a correction; 16 may 2025
<<The gas rig operating close to the 12 Apostles was not built by ConocoPhillips, as we previously said, but by a company called Transocean, which is based in Switzerland. This gas rig, called the Transocean Equinox, will be used by several different companies, including ConocoPhillips and Beach Energy, to undertake test drills in multiple locations on Victoria’s west coast over the coming months. >>
—————
original post below:from the Australia Institute…
<While the country was distracted by the federal election, something chilling appeared off Victoria’s coastline.
A new offshore gas rig, built by multinational petroleum giant ConocoPhillips, has been erected to drill deep into the seafloor off the Great Ocean Road. Not only is the gas rig next to a Marine National Park, it now stands as a backdrop to the world famous Twelve Apostles – a reminder that nowhere is safe from the oil and gas industry in Australia.With Australia's media still focused on the outcome of the election, this major development has not been widely reported on – even when the risk of an oil spill from the gas rig would be catastrophic to our marine ecosystems

The Apostles were more than disciples; they were scholars who sparked a transformative era. How do you see their influence in today's society? #DeepThoughts #TwelveApostles #Christianity #Faith #History #Legacy #Inspiration #Hope #Wisdom #Community #BeTheChange

Part of the Twelve Apostles Stone Circle north of Dumfries, mainland Scotland’s largest stone circle. The eleven stones (there would originally have been eighteen) form a slightly "squashed" circle about 86m in diameter.

The Great Ocean Walk from Apollo Bay to the Twelve Apostles is a hike that covers approximately 100km in seven days. Even if you're not into hiking and camping, the Great Ocean Road is a stunning drive and worth doing as a daytrip.
This time last year, @verdigriis & me did the hike with a moderate amount of preparation & training, survived, and enjoyed the experience (despite storms, mud, and bitey insects).
I think we're extremely fortunate to have this extraordinarily beautiful landscape and wildlife right here on our doorstep in Victoria.#GreatOceanWalk #GOW #Hiking #Victroria #Australia #ApolloBay #TwelveApostles
