    Torquay, Vic

    January 25, 2022 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

    Stayed 3 nights here...not much choice as far as availability so stayed at the Torquay Beachfront Holiday Park...absolutely massive campground and packed out for Australia Day. Not that there were any organised Australia Day celebrations on 😒 The pub across the Rd had a disco on the night b4 Aust Day and had "boom boom" music (as Pete calls it) cranking...but only till 11.30ish which was good as we could hear it loud and clear. That was ok but the poor young girl camped 2 sites away with her family, who had obviously had way too much to drink at the disco, was not ok as we had to listen to her wretching for hours 🤮 so gross.
    On Australia Day we did the 12km return Ocean walk to Bells Beach (not much swell) which was good then went out for a boozy lunch...the masses had arrived and Torquay front beach was chockas!
    The following day was hot, overcast & windy so went for a massage (which was a 10/10 !), did some planning before watching tennis all afternoon & evening. YAY Special K's, Dylan Alcott & Ash Barty!! 👏👏👏 Booked accommodation in Melbourne & Tasmania. Looking forward to going on the Spirit of Tasmania! Massive storm that evening...it was wild ⚡🌪⛈ Packed up early the next morning before another storm that was forecast arrived and got the heck outta there! See ya Torquay 👋
