We chose Portland for its location in relation to our itinerary and for the prospect of seeing kangaroos and koalas around the motel. Unfortunately the wildlife didn't oblige, although the owner went out to check whether the local koala was in residence. We were warmly welcomed and given fresh milk and useful information on places to eat around the town.
Portland is the most westerly of Victoria's major coastal towns and the only deep-water port between Melbourne and Adelaide. It was also the first permanent settlement in Victoria, founded in 1834 by the Hentys. The township, which features many National Trust-classified buildings, overlooks Portland Bay.
Portland is a perfect place to stay and base yourself after driving the 400 or so kilometres via the Great Ocean Road from Melbourne. Being the most westerly Victorian coastal town, it is also ideally located if you intend to explore South Australia or Western Victoria.
