About Kennett River
Kennett River is a small seaside town in Victoria,
Australia.
Situated 174 kilometres (108 mi) west of
Melbourne, on the Otway Coast part of the
scenic Great Ocean Road, Kennett River is a
popular tourist destination 27 kilometres (17 mi)
from the resort town of Lorne, Victoria.
The Kennett River area is known for scenic coastal
views, the Great Otway National Park, and surfing.
Kennett River is also one of the best places in
Australia to see koalas in the wild. Turn into Grey
River Road, off the Great Ocean Road, and along
the first two kilometres of the road you will be
unlucky not to spot koalas in the eucalypts.
