Sydney Melbourne Coastal Drive

This is truly a holiday road. At one end Sydney, the other Melbourne. In between is the Princes Highway. And from the NSW border to the Gippsland Lakes the touring options are plentiful. A trip to or from either capital city will become a pleasant journey to discover hidden treasures just off the highway.

Perhaps a food experience or an adventure – these elements you must decide on; but whatever you choose, you can do it in East Gippsland. Turn off the Coastal Drive highway and explore salty lake or beachside hot spots, hinterland havens or High Country escapes. Caravan or motor home travellers on Highway Number One will be rewarded if they plan a stop.

Get to meet locals and enjoy country hospitality. With many ‘must see’ places in East Gippsland just off the highway, time will not be wasted getting to destinations. Plan to stop and stay and your journey will reveal secret destinations that you were unaware of.
