Very blissful place. Sit and relax in the benches next to the look outs . Have some fish and chips while enjoying amazing ocean view. The torquoise water makes the water look fantastic. It's a good place for selfie lovers. Have seen people doing wedding photo shoot too.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience visiting Split Point Lighthouse during my Great Ocean Road adventure! Nestled in the charming town of Aireys Inlet, this historic beacon is a true gem of Victoria's coastline. Despite the brisk winds and chilly air, the sight of this iconic structure against the backdrop of the rugged coastline took my breath away. The lighthouse's rich history, dating back to 1891, adds an extra layer of fascination to the visit. The knowledgeable guides provided fascinating insights into the lighthouse's operation and significance, making the tour both educational and engaging. The panoramic views from the top were simply breathtaking, offering a glimpse of the stunning natural beauty that surrounds the area. Whether you're a history buff, nature lover, or simply seeking an unforgettable experience along the Great Ocean Road, a visit to Split Point Lighthouse is an absolute must!

$10 for a self-guided tour. You can purchase online or pay by cash or card at the site. Walk to the top of the lighthouse and take in the view. You can stay as long as you like. Lots of memorabilia and interesting facts line the inside walls of the lighthouse. A fantastic view of Aireys Inlet, Fairhaven and the Great Ocean Road. We really enjoyed. I hear you can’t bring children under five.

131 Year old, 34 Meters tall, 136 steps to climb. This 131 year old lighthouse is a must visit if you are around the area. We recently took the Aireys Inlet lighthouse tour and was very happy with the experience. The tour guide was knowledgeable, warm and friendly, and explained to us all the untold stories behind it. The views from the top of the lighthouse were absolutely stunning. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who is in the area and wants to learn more about the history of the lighthouse and the surrounding area. The tour is a great way to spend an hour and get some fresh air and exercise while taking in the beautiful scenery. Overall, we had a wonderful time on the tour and would recommend to others. PS. Take your own time and read all the small stories and titbits posted around the lighthouse walls.

It was the friendly and very knowledgable ladies (one stationed at the base of the light house and one at the top) who made this visit interesting and worthwhile. Besides, of course, the amazing views! Entry was very reasonably priced at $10 per person. There were 136 stairs to the top. We enjoyed learning about the history of the lighthouse. There are some viewing platforms at the foot of the lighthouse, but the views are nowhere near as spectacular. We turned off the Great Ocean Road onto Inlet Crescent and kept left around the lake. Then turned left onto Lighthouse Road and left again at the top where there was a large area for parking. The walk from the car park along Federal Street to the lighthouse is reasonably level. En route is the Lighthouse Tearoom.

A small trek up to the Lighthouse and its definitely worth it. Climb to the top for $10 and take in 360 views. We didn't climb it as the half the top was closed to gale force winds, but others did. U can also walk out to the various looking points as well.

Well worth a visit to a (still working) lighthouse. Guides have great information to share, easy going and willing to chat - and the views are awesome (my camera pics don't do the views and information justice). Entry price is more than fair. Made me also appreciate the hardship our early settlers, ships crews and others went through compared with what we have today. Loved it the visit - and will probably do again as so much information to see and I was on a tight schedule.

Amazing workmanship. Fantastic 360° views. Plenty of parking and short walk to lighthouse. Short walks many lookouts - shoes with good grips recommended.

A beautiful place to visit. Lighthouse is very impressive and if you wish to tour inside it costs $10. A cafe is nearby if you wish for a meal and coffee. Tracks from the lighthouse lead to very scenic rock and sea views. Good for a photo. The carpark is a bit small though.

Beautiful location with lovely cliff walks. Lots of birds and great views of the lighthouse and ocean.

136 one way steps.. Mesmerising view up top.. recommended age of kids 5+.. informative boards while on the way. Ample Carpark but mostly full.. need to find somewhere around.. designed beautifully.. worth taking a stop while on great ocean road..

Firstly for anyone who enjoyed the TV show, Round the Twist, this is the place. $10 entry fee per person to climb up to the top. Various readings on the way up. On top and outside is fairly narrow but manoeuvrable enough. Well worth the visit for great viewing of the surrounding area.

Wonderful lighthouse in beautiful setting, although not as in a original condition as the nearby Cape Schank it is still an interesting visit. Great views from the top and a very knowledgeable guide who answered all questions. Would highly recommend, also being the lighthouse from around the twist is a bonus!

Beautiful part of the world, with magnificent ocean vistas. There are now three easily accessible viewing platforms around the lighthouse, affording more stunning views of Eagle Rock, the small beaches directly below on one side and further extensive sights down the coast on the other. A must do at Airey's Inlet. Make sure to visit The Lighthouse Tea Rooms, only metres away, for a delicious array of savoury and sweet offerings.

Easy to access from the free lower car park by the inlet. Extremely friendly and well informed guides who bring the lighthouse alive and breathtaking (literally if it is windy) at the top.

Very nice lighthouse with a good amount of history. The staff were very nice.

Would recommend climbing up for just $10/person if you're ok with hights. U won't regret it. The view up there is absolutely superb. The staff are friendly and helpful and informative.

As we journey along the winding Great Ocean Road, our drone’s lens captures the majestic Split Point. Here, nature’s artistry carves an awe-inspiring coastline, where each rock and wave tells a tale of the sea. Perched on the edge of steep cliffs, the iconic Red Cap Lighthouse commands attention—not only as a beacon for sailors but as a symbol of this marine expanse. The camera rises to reveal the full splendor of Split Point—the tumultuous ocean waves clash with the serene sands, showcasing nature’s dual personality. Circling the lighthouse, the drone captures its solitary figure against the backdrop, painting a stirring image. Each frame is poetry, each second surges with emotion. Don’t hesitate to share this video; let’s uncover the mysteries and beauty of Split Point and the Red Cap Lighthouse together. On the Great Ocean Road, every step is a new discovery, every flight a new chapter. #GreatOceanRoadVibes #SplitPointSecrets #RedCapLighthouse #DroneOnGreatOceanRoad #NaturalWonders #AdventureJourney

We were too late for the tour to climb the Lighthouse. It still a good walk around with good view.

If you are venturing down the Great Ocean Road you simply must stop and climb the Lighthouse. The views from the top are spectacular not to mention the lovely and knowledgeable staff that can chat to you about the history and even some tips to help the confidence of those who might be a little nervy with heights. Super nostalgic thinking about 'The Round the Twist' crew and the amazing show that it was to watch growing up, you wont be disappointed to walk the little way from the carpark to reach the Lighthouse. We were blessed with wonderful weather although there was a slight breeze it was nothing hair raising. Photo credit to the lovely staff member to snapped our family so we could all be in a photo together - Thank you.

$10 Entry, on busy period be prepared to wait 15-20 minutes. Great spot with plenty of history available! Worth it.

Beautiful spot! Sensational views. Great Saturday afternoon adventure! Fantastic weather, perfect clear views. Lighthouse Pristine and well maintained. Was itching to get up the top, but closed for private tour.

Very nice look out, easy short walk to the viewing areas. Having wheelchair access. Parking can be a bit limited but still ok. Nice view of the ocean and the light house too. Also have a nice restaurant/cafeteria for dine-in or just a take-away coffee/drinks.

The view from lookout was amazing and for us there was no need to buy 10 dollars tickets for visiting a lighthouse. It's good on its own! The nature is so beautiful and epic💚🌳🌊

Split Point Lookout offers awe-inspiring coastal views! Perched atop rugged cliffs, it's a vantage point to behold the majesty of the Southern Ocean. A must-visit along the Great Ocean Road for nature enthusiasts and photographers alike.

First stop of my first trip on GOR. Beautiful view of ocean. Nice place to visit

A really spectacular look out along the Great Ocean Road, there's a beautiful lighthouse too. A short walk to the viewing areas, parking is very limited but you'll manage for sure.

The Split Point Lighthouse is a must-see attraction and stands as a stunning sentinel on the Shipwreck Coast. Take a trip through maritime history and be amazed by this wild and dangerous coastline where hundreds of ships have crashed.

Stunning scenery, several walking tracks that lead around the gardens and coastline. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets.

Beautiful lookout including the “Round the Twist” lighthouse at the top of the cliff. There are a few walks you can do down to view points, some of which are gravel and some are not. I would not say it is easily accessible for a pram and definitely not suitable for a wheelchair. Parking is a few hundred meters away, as are toilets.

Oh my god!! You have to come here!! Don’t miss this spot. It takes a few minutes but it is worth it. Park in the parking area only and don’t bring the car up to the lighthouse!! You’ll know why 😄 . enjoy the photos and videos but honestly speaking photos can’t justify the beauty of this place. Tip: try watching sunrise from here ❤️

Do you remember watching Round the twist as a kid? This is the famous lighthouse from that tv show. Now the lighthouse is great, there is a fee to climb up, but the view of the beach here is what makes it worthwhile. Parking here is a nightmare so be prepared to circle around a fair few times.

Great views, worth the walk from the carpark up a short but step path to the lighthouse.

When I was a kid I was fond of watching Round the Twist. Never thought I will be able to witness the location. Sally explained us well about the place she is a nice lady. I am so happy.

The Split Point Lighthouse is a fun area to start your exploration of Aireys Inlet and surrounds. It's a funky whimsical lighthouse that was used in the tv show Around the Twist (Australian national treasure for sure 🤣). To this day it is still a fully functional lighthouse that ensures ships don't meet their doom upon the rocky shores in the region. Once you've stared at the lighthouse in all it's glory there's a few close by lookouts to wander to so you can take in the stunning surrounds. The beauty of the natural land and seascapes is an absolute marvel. From here the world is your oyster - choose your own story and take your pick of the ton of branching pathways to search the natural ecosystem around you. The town of Aireys Inlet is only a small one but it has everything you need and feels different from a lot of other seaside towns in the area. They have managed to keep it homely and relaxed and have managed to maintain the old world natural beauty. You won't find a strip mall or fast food or high rises but there is a bookstore, combined souvenir/lolly/old school rental movie store, fish and chips, a pub, a cafe and a grocery and liquor store. The great ocean road is a trip worth taking and this is a definite must stop (and stay) along the way. Stop in to see the lighthouse and stay to enjoy the adventure! P.s. A response to everyone bitching and moaning about the parking - I had zero issues, however can imagine it could be very busy on the warmer weekends. If you have a HUGE camper vehicle park down the road at the park and enjoy meandering up the track. I understand this won't work for everyone but this is a natural area by the cliffs with residences nearby, putting in a monstrous concrete car park would seriously ruin the area and destroy the natural beauty.

Beautiful place. Great lookout and perfect weather in Summer time (December - March) Easy walking track to the lighthouse. Recommended for family visit.

This split point lighthouse is famous for the tv series Round the Twist and must see attraction. It is still working light house and if you need to see the inside of it make sure you visit there before 2pm. I missed it my both times here. The lookout is so amazing. You will see the eagle rock 🪨 on the middle of the sea. And the view is so mesmerizing. I really love visiting this place.

Eagle beak shape elevated rock from sea level of around 300 m gives spectacular view of ocean waves.

One of my favorite places in Victoria. I have visited this place 3 times and still can't get over the beauty of this place. You should add this place to your great ocean road trip list. Don't miss out. And also visit lighthouse tour and also grab breakfast from Lighthouse Tea room.

Just amazing. Love to visit the lookout and well recommended as well

🌟 Mesmerized by the stunning view, with the lighthouse providing a perfect backdrop. It is conveniently located just a 2-minute walk from free parking. Note: Access to the lighthouse may be restricted (uncertain). Enjoy a charming cafe along the pathway. ☕️

Almost blown away, both literally and figuratively, by this windswept stretch of coast, presided over by the proud figure of the Split Point Lighthouse, which you can climb for a reasonable cost. The short walks are relatively easy, though the elderly might need some support getting to the Split Point Lookout, and on the longer walk down to the beach. Note that parking is an issue, especially during peak periods and there is not that much of it, and the upper car park is a dead-end which is very frustrating. I'd suggest using the off road parking in Eagle Rock Road, it's easier to get in/out of and barely a longer stroll to the lighthouse.

Lovely view.

beautiful view up the lighthouse!

Very beautiful place surrounding the light house. If u can climb u can buy tickets $10 ticket and climb in the lighthouse hill. Just a cool unforgettable experience

It’s good but to be honest, views are better at split point looking

Such a beautiful place, how to not visit… really one of the many wonderful spot to enjoy the scenery and the ocean!

Good climb if you can walk, beautiful views the toilet is at the bottom of the cliff behind the lighthouse.

Great views! Bit windy but really lovely. Whether or not you’re any good at photography you’ll get some good shots. Four seperate little lookouts there and information signs. Definitely worth it :)

An absolutely stunning lookout with a great walk path to get to it and to explore around the lookout.
