History
The township of Barwon Heads was first surveyed in 1870 but remained sparsely populated for many years. Fishing was the mainstay of the town in its early years.


In the 1890’s an influx of hunters started to visit Lake Connewarre for ducks and other native birds, which saw the town swell. In the 1920s and 1930s the town became a popular holiday resort and a number of the richer families of Melbourne built houses here. The summer period today still sees a large influx of holidaymakers to the town.


The Barwon Heads Bridge was opened in 1927, spanning the Barwon River between Barwon Heads and Ocean Grove. Prior to this there was a rowboat service across the river.
During the late 1990s, Barwon Heads was the primary location of filming for the popular Australian television series, SeaChange. In the past decade Barwon Heads has become subject to what is colloquially known in some parts of Australia as the 'seachange effect'.


The waters around the heads have been very dangerous over the years, the giant limestone bluff not only stands proudly at the mouth of the river it extends along a large reef into the sea and has caused many devastating shipping accidents over the years. There are recordings of 12 ships between 1853 and 1890 being destroyed. One of the worst was the Earl of Charemont which was lost on the rocks in 1853. In 1940 a cargo ship called the Orungal also run aground and burnt and there are reports of it’s boilers still being seen off the bluff at low tide.


Barwon Heads has remained one of the most popular holiday destinations in the Geelong region for nearly 100 years and with so much to offer with its beautiful natural assets and quaint town it will remain a favourite for many years to come

The state of Victoria is one of Australia's most popular tourist destinations, as well as being an economic power in the country (accounting for a quarter of the nation's gross domestic product).

Victoria is the smallest Australian mainland state in area but the most densely populated and urbanised. Victoria began in the 1830s as a farming community, but the discovery of gold in 1851 transformed it into a leading industrial and commercial centre. This was one of the largest gold rushes the world has ever seen and did much to set up Victoria's economic power for the future.

Victoria is the second most populous Australian state, after NSW, with an estimated population of 5 million (Sept 2005). Melbourne is Victoria's capital and largest city, with more than 70% of all Victorians living there. Victoria is also Australia's most urbanised state, with nearly 90% of residents living in cities and towns.

Victoria is also famous as the home of Australian Rules Football (Aussie Rules), with 10 of the 16 clubs of the national league based in Victoria, and the traditional Grand Final held at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on the last Saturday in September.
The holiday town of Barwon Heads is located on the southern coast of the Bellarine Peninsula and separated by the Barwon River from its twin coastal town of Ocean Grove.

Barwon Heads is a popular seaside community, offering a diverse variety of coastal attractions from the shallow and sandy shoreline of the Barwon River to the windswept surf beaches which front Bass Strait along 13th Beach Road. The Bluff Lookout, at Point Flinders, is situated on a rocky outcrop and a network of surrounding walking tracks provides views over the town centre, along the Barwon River and in all directions across Bass Strait.

The commercial centre of Barwon Heads includes the town's major hotel just near the river bridge and a strip of shops including cafes and restaurants along Hitchcock Avenue.

Just north of Barwon Heads is the expansive waterway of Lake Connewarre and surrounding wetlands which make an ideal spot for fishing and bird watching.
