Skenes Creek

If you were to define the towns along the Great Ocean Road in fashion terms, Skenes Creek would be labelled as ‘summer casual’.

Life’s simple in Skenes Creek. This scenic seaside ‘caravan park destination’ near Apollo Bay doesn’t flaunt its beauty: it wants to be casually discovered. Its style is relaxed and friendly, as if it’s always Sunday. There’s no main street to act as the catwalk, not even shops and cafés to show it's on trend. Skenes Creek is just a big community of campers. Bring the dogs, the kids and the grandparents and you’ll fit right in.
