Surf Culture on the Great Ocean Road: Bells, Winkipop & More

Описание: On our drive along Australia’s Great Ocean Road, we stopped at the stunning Southside Beach — and found just one surfer carving the waves: Will, a true local character with a reggae-filled van, surfboard in tow, and his signature felt top hat.

Before he packed up, we stopped to chat about what makes this stretch of coastline so special for surfers. Will shared why spots like Winkipop and Bells Beach are legendary for waves, and even gave us a mini science lesson on how the shape and energy of Australian waves differ from those on the West Coast of California.

This laid-back encounter captures the spirit of surf culture on the Great Ocean Road — where the waves, the people, and the stories make the experience unforgettable.
