Tours & Programs
Your host Malcolm Brack has decades of experience when it comes to making the most of the natural environment at Cape Otway & along the spectacular Great Ocean Road.
Malcolm loves creating personalised programs – linking clubs and groups with the most appropriate and best quality excursions.
Programs
Cape Otway and the Great Ocean Road region is a natural playground, rich with a range of exciting experiences, and the staff at Cape Otway Ocean Lodge are committed to helping you create an itinerary to match your aspirations.
We can create programs which reflect your group’s needs, such as corporate and class team-building, natural studies, maritime heritage and outdoor education.
If you’re looking for nature-based tourism experiences we can connect you with the best self-guided or guided walking tours, surfing, horse-trail riding, snorkelling safaris, sea kayaking, mountain biking adventures and wildlife tours.
We can help you to see whales, seals, koalas, kangaroos, birds and even tiny glow worms (but please note that some of these creatures are seasonal).
If history and heritage catch your imagination, we’ll set you up with tours of the Cape Otway Lightstation, local Aboriginal heritage and shipwreck tours.

Great Ocean Walk
Cape Otway Ocean Lodge is at the centre of the Great Ocean Walk – widely recognised as one of the world’s great walks, traversing 91km of Victoria’s spectacular coastline, passing through the Great Otway National Park and overlooking the Twelve Apostles Marine National Park.
The eight-day walk begins in the resort town of Apollo Bay and continues west, ending with a view of the Twelve Apostles. You can do the whole walk or just enjoy sections of it
Cape Otway Ocean Lodge is just a short walk from Great Ocean Walk and host Malcolm Brack can provide groups information about where to step on and off the walk, the best places to stop for rest breaks, camping and where to look out for wildlife.
Malcolm can organise transport for you and supply packed lunches.
Cape Otway Ocean Lodge is an official Great Ocean Walk partner and walking clubs are entitled to a special group discount.
