Farm experiences in Otways & Great Ocean Road

The Otways and Great Ocean Road coast, south-west of Melbourne, is green, high-rainfall farming country tucked between the ranges and the sea. Johanna Farmstay, near the famous surf beach, offers a stay on a working farm with animals and activities, while Wongarra Farm on the coast above Apollo Bay opens its gate for farm events and tours.

These are booked farm stays and dated experiences rather than pick-your-own produce, set along one of Victoria's best-loved touring routes. Confirm dates and what's on with each farm before you visit.

Frequently asked questions

What farm experiences are along the Otways and Great Ocean Road?

Johanna Farmstay offers a stay on a working farm with animals and hands-on activities near Johanna Beach, and Wongarra Farm runs farm events and tours on the coast above Apollo Bay. Both are booked or dated experiences, so check what's on before you go.

How far is the Otways coast from Melbourne?

The Johanna and Apollo Bay area is roughly a three-hour drive south-west of Melbourne along the Great Ocean Road, so it suits an overnight or weekend rather than a day trip. The coast road is scenic but slow, so allow plenty of time.

When is the best time to visit these coastal farms?

The Otways are green year-round but wettest in winter; farm stays run through the seasons while dated events cluster in the warmer months. Confirm current availability and any event dates directly with the farm.
