Ocean Grove – a great place for the family holiday – or just a weekend break!

Ocean Grove is less than an hour and a half’s drive from Melbourne. The main attraction is the surf beach – it is patrolled during summer and is one of the most popular in the area. You can learn to surf if you like and there is plenty of space on the beach for a game of cricket etc.
Just down the road is Barwon Heads with the well known historic bridge from ‘Seachange’. Barwon Heads offers an alternative place for the kids to swim and also has a boat ramp and access to the ocean to do some fishing.

There are two separate shopping centres in Ocean Grove to satisfy all your needs. Shops include Coles supermarkets, clothing, surf, gifts, pharmacies, bakeries, butchers, green grocers, fish 'n chips, hardware, manchester, shoes, toys, bikes, jewellers, hairdressers, newsagent, bottle shops, post office and banks. There are also dental and medical centres, fitness clubs, beauty salons, chiropractor, massage, plus real-estate and travel agents.
You are also not far from the big surf shops and factory outlets at Torquay.
Good surfing spots are in close proximity for the keen surfer including Ocean Grove main beach, K.N's, Raffs and 13th Beach.

There is a great choice of local restaurants including ‘The Dunes’ at the main surf beach with views to Barwon Heads Bluff and Point Lonsdale’s lighthouse; watch the ships go through to Port Phillip Bay. They serve meals from hearty breakfasts to delicious lunches and dinners. Also try ‘Thai MeKong’, ‘13 Steps’, ‘Nectar Bar’, ‘7th Wave’, Pizza, Pasta etc – most are an easy walk from ‘The White House’ ….and the Coffee shops just up the road are wonderful…..
Also try historic ‘Oakdene’, an early 1900's country home transformed into a top class restaurant. Also good for a relaxing meal is ‘The Heads’ Restaurant at Barwon Heads pier!

  • "This is an amazing house, the most amazing views of the ocean and a perfect stay for families or a big group like we had for a birthday. Plenty of room and plenty of activities to keep you going on a wet day, or just sit on the deck and watch the ships go past. This house was perfect for our weekend away."

  • "This was our 2nd stay, and we had another fantastic weekend. Even though the weather was average, we still felt like we'd been away at the beach just from being able to look out at the fabulous view. The photos here don't do it justice!"

  • "I stayed for a weekend with my wife + 2 infants and our dog. The house is very big with plenty of room for more guest or visitors. The view is amazing, stretching from the bluff across to the Point Lonsdale Light house. Shops and beach are a short walk away. I booked the white house for a 2 week stay in summer as soon as we got home. Highly recommend this property."

The views from the house are amazing.A great weekend."
