The Best Surf Located

Lorne Front beach has a sensation surf spot which caters for beginners to full down the line hard turning wave machines. It also has a number of breaks either side of the town if you want to move away a little and plan a day trip from Lorne. For the Lorne wave to work it has to have the right day but when it does go it is worth the wait!

Locals Tip

Erskine Falls is a 30 metre waterfall fed by local rainwater that features at the end of two looped walks. On the right day the mist created by the drop is a refreshing way to soak in this magnificent wilderness area. From Lorne you can take the trail right to the falls, so if the surf’s bad head inland for a breath of amazing forest.
