Blanket Bay Great Ocean Walk Campsite

Blanket Bay Great Ocean Walk Campsite sits within Great Otway National Park, nestled among coastal manna gum woodland beside a sheltered cove roughly 10 kilometres from Cape Otway Lighthouse.

It serves as a designated hike-in overnight stop on the Great Ocean Walk, positioned approximately 12 kilometres west of Elliot Ridge Campsite and about 10. 5 kilometres east of the Cape Otway campsite.

The site is a popular rest point for through-hikers completing the multi-day Great Ocean Walk, and a dedicated group area accommodates parties of up to 16 people.

Koalas are commonly spotted sleeping in the manna gums, and wallabies and birdlife frequent the area. The adjacent beach offers rockpools and swimming on calmer days, though currents can be strong.

Advance booking through Parks Victoria is strongly recommended.
