The Twelve Apostles
Amazing Australia

Unique rock formations rising out of the sea

The Twelve Apostles along Victoria's Great Ocean Road

Copyright Tourism Victoria
Huge limestone rock formations rising out of the coastal sea comprise one of Victoria's most popular attractions, The Twelve Apostles. You won't see 12 of these rock formations all at once, as they say some may be hidden from view from any of the vantage points. Some say as well that there are no longer 12 rock formations, because one or two (or as many as five or six) may have been eroded away by the action of wind and waves. Find them along Victoria's Great Ocean Road.
