Located 50km west of Portland Discovery Bay Sand Dunes are a hidden gem. There are 1800 hectares of dunes stretching along the Victorian coast all the way to the South Australian border. Here I found myself totally amazed to be able to walk across these dunes, often at times feeling as if I were in the Sahara Desert. Is is strongly advised that you keep sight of the Southern Ocean on your left as you begin your trek, the signed posts are not always guaranteed to guide you safely without getting lost. I know from experience that you can easily become disoriented as you search for the perfect shot.
