What To See and Do

Point Roadknight – An attractive headland which protects the beach and a great vantage point that has good protected swimming below.

Anglesea Golf Course - A game of golf comes with a slice of the local wildlife. The 18-hole course is set among beautiful native bushland. Scores of kangaroos happily graze on the wide fairways or loll about near the greens. You don't have to be a player to enjoy the spectacle. Sightseers can get a good view of the 'roos from Golf Links Road early morning and evening.

Coogoorah Reserve – The Reserve is on the western side of the Anglesea River on either side of the Great Ocean Road. It is an interesting combination of bushland islands linked by boardwalks and bridges. It has good picnic and barbecue facilities as well as a range of activity-based equipment for the children. The boardwalk offers excellent opportunities to experience the flora and fauna of this interesting wetland.

Anglesea Heathland Cliff Walk - To the north of the Anglesea River is a pleasant coastal walk which starts at Purnell Street (just east of the Bowling Club). It passes through coastal forests and along the cliffs. The walk takes approx. 45 minutes.

Point Addis - Turn off the Great Ocean Rd 7 km north-east of Anglesea and it's 3 km to the carpark. A walking trail leads to the beach. The Point is popular with hang-gliders as well as surfers and swimmers. The Koorie Cultural Walk, a 1-km loop-track, leads through the Ironbark Basin, a nature reserve with a profusion of birdlife.
