Portland is a small coastal town on the south-west coast of victoria, no longer strictly ocean road (Great Ocean Road), but some self-driving tourists will travel from ocean road along the coastline to the capital of south australia Adelaide, so Portland is a must, so it also classifies the area into ocean road.
Portland is a large town on the westernmost side of Victoria, and about 80 kilometers west will enter the territory of South Australia, about 75 kilometers from XianNu Port (Port Fairy), about 104 kilometers from Wanampur (Warrnambool) and about 108 kilometers from Mount Gambier (Mount Gamiber) in South Australia.
Portland was the first place European immigrants came to settle in Victoria (1834), so the town's historical buildings are more and longer than Ocean Road. And the large aluminum factory five kilometers away, with this elegant historical harbor appears a bit out of place. Portland, like van der boer, is a good place to watch whales. Every winter, when southern right whales are found at sea, the tourist information center carries yellow flags. whale watching platform (Whale Viewing Platform) is an iconic scenic spot, a 25-meter climbing water tower that can see the distant ocean and inland scenery, is also the best location for whale watching, of course, a high-magnification telescope is also essential.
Meanwhile, the Portland has 8 kilometers long sightseeing tram, connecting wharf seaport, Portland botanical garden (Portland Botanical Gardens), ocean exploration center (Portland Maritime Discovery Centre), Portland power classic car museum (Portland Powerhouse Motor and Car Museum) and war memorial tower (War Memorial -Portland), leisurely drinking coffee to take the tram, is the best way to enjoy the Portland amorous feelings.
