Located on the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia, Lorne Beach is the beach inside of the cove most well known for the point. This beach break can get decent, and breaks over a sandy bottom. The waves here are straightforward to surf and break for up to 100 meters providing sections for turns and airs.
