The 12 Apostles is probably the most visited attraction in Australia and it just makes good sense to stay close by in 12 Apostles accommodation. It is without a doubt the most popular destination along the entire Great Ocean Road; and for very good reason! These awesome limestone stacks have been drawing tourists for year after year. Both domestic and international travelers have the Apostles firmly on their bucket list. However, there isn’t actually twelve apostles – there are only eight remaining with two having fallen into the sea in the past ten years. In fact there wasn’t even 12 to begin with. The 12 Apostles are part of the Shipwreck Coast which can deliver some incredibly harsh weather from time to time and the action of rain, wind and waves over the eons means that these fragile limestone stacks will not be around forever. So, now is the time to come and have a look! If you like sunrises and sunsets then you really do need to visit these majestic structures. The 12 Apostles is the best place along the Great Ocean Road for sunsets. 12 Apostles accommodation is limited as future development is prohibited but there are a few available options.
