Whalers Point

📖 About Whalers Point

Whalers Point is a wild and windswept headland near Portland in Victoria's far west, named for the nineteenth-century whaling operations once based on this stretch of coastline. Dramatic basalt columns and powerful Southern Ocean swells define the seascape, and the area forms part of the Great South West Walk, a 250-kilometre coastal trek. It appeals to walkers, history enthusiasts, and anyone drawn to rugged, untamed coastline well off the tourist trail.
