Great Ocean Road (Australia)

The Great Ocean Road stretches 151 miles along Victoria's southwestern coast, built by returned soldiers between 1919 and 1932 as a memorial to their fallen comrades. It's the world's largest war memorial and one of the most scenic coastal drives on Earth. The Twelve Apostles limestone stacks, the rainforest canopy of the Otway Ranges, and the surf breaks of Bells Beach create a constantly changing backdrop. The driving is engaging without being terrifying — sweeping coastal curves interspersed with tighter inland sections through eucalyptus forests.
