The town itself exudes a friendly atmosphere, with a selection of cafes, restaurants, and shops that showcase local produce and artisanal goods. The Anglesea Art House and local markets provide a glimpse into the creative talents of the community.
Anglesea also serves as a convenient base for exploring other attractions along the Great Ocean Road, such as the iconic Twelve Apostles, the historic Split Point Lighthouse in Aireys Inlet, and the lush rainforests of the Otway Ranges.
With its combination of coastal beauty, wildlife encounters, outdoor activities, and a welcoming community, Anglesea is a destination that promises a memorable and rejuvenating experience for all who visit.
