Guidebook for Apollo Bay
Food Scene
Consistently great food. Located just off the Main Street, but enter the building and it’s like a hidden city restaurant. Serving Italian style food, with homemade pasta, gourmet pizza, risotto as well as great Steak, duck and pork. They use locally caught crayfish (lobster) and fish in their daily specials. Open every night, dinner served until 9pm. Great wine list and cocktails too.

Sightseeing
When visiting Apollo Bay you MUST go to Marriner's Lookout. Drive up to the carpark (or walk if you feel like a challenging hill climb!), and then walk the 300m or so along the hill to the lookout. Simply stunning views of Apollo Bay, the coastline from Cape Patton to Marengo, the harbour and ocean. On a clear water day you can see the shipwreck Casino in front of Pisces Caravan Park. Take a picnic blanket and relax for the afternoon.

Apollo Bay is very scenically beautiful. Wide sandy beaches, a crescent shaped bay, clean blue water and rolling green hills to the sea. The Apollo Bay harbour has a working fishing port, and great views back over the town.
