Twelve Apostles Beach is a stunning beach located in Princetown, Australia, right next to the famous Twelve Apostles rock formations. The beach is approximately 1.5 kilometers in length and features fine golden sand and clear blue waters.

If you're looking for a bite to eat after a day at the beach, there are several great restaurants nearby. The Twelve Rocks Beach Bar & Cafe offers a range of pub-style dishes and stunning ocean views, while the Timboon Railway Shed Distillery is a popular spot for its whiskey and locally-sourced produce.

There are several accommodation options in the Princetown area, ranging from budget-friendly options to luxury lodges. The Twelve Apostles Motel & Country Retreat is a cozy and affordable choice, while the Southern Ocean Villas offer spacious and modern accommodations with ocean views. Alternatively, visitors can opt for a cabin or holiday house rental in the area.

While the beach has few amenities, it does have public restrooms and allows dogs on-leash, so visitors can bring their furry friends along.

Visitors to Twelve Apostles Beach can enjoy a range of activities, including swimming, sunbathing, fishing, and exploring the nearby rock formations.

There is a small parking lot at Twelve Apostles Beach, and it is free to park. However, parking can be limited during peak season, so visitors should plan to arrive early to secure a spot.

Did you know that the Twelve Apostles rock formations were originally called the Sow and Piglets? The name was changed in the 1920s to attract more visitors to the area.

In addition to enjoying the beach and rock formations, visitors can also explore the nearby Great Ocean Walk, which offers stunning coastal views and a chance to spot native wildlife. The nearby Port Campbell National Park is also worth a visit, offering hiking trails, scenic drives, and the Loch Ard Gorge, which tells the story of a shipwreck in the area.
