Nestled in Victoria’s South West corner, the Glenelg Shire area is known as the Discovery Coast.

The region boasts rich maritime history, and inspiring natural attractions. The region’s towns include historic Portland, scenic Cape Bridgewater, the quaint village of Nelson and the rural towns of Casterton, Heywood and Dartmoor.

Rolling hills and rich agricultural land to the north give way to a scenic and secluded river region to the west, pine plantations line the roads through the hinterland, while a huge expanse of coastal beaches and cliffs form the southern perimeter. Whether you’re seeking a land, sea or river experience, or a combination of all three, the Discovery Coast is the place to be!

Find out more about the destinations and things to do and see in the Discovery Coast by following the links below:
