Marengo Family Caravan Park

Marengo Family Caravan Park is a small coastal holiday park with cabins and campsites at Marengo, about 2 km from Apollo Bay. Book a stay for full beach frontage and ocean views; this is an overnight base, not a public day-use stop. Access for non-guests to the grounds and facilities isn’t established. The park sits near the Apollo Bay end of the Great Ocean Walk.

Facilities include a camp kitchen, barbecue area, laundry, playground and Wi-Fi, with family and accessible amenities also listed. There’s no café or restaurant listed on site, so plan to cook or eat elsewhere. Dog-friendly cabins and sites are available; check which accommodation accepts dogs before booking. If you need accessible facilities, confirm the specific features with the operator.

Some campers find the pitches close together, with limited room for a vehicle or awning. Ask about the layout of a particular site if you’re bringing a large rig or want more space.

Marengo Reefs Marine Sanctuary protects 12.5 hectares around Little Henty Reef, less than 50 metres offshore. Sandstone shelves form pools, gutters and ledges with sea snails, tubeworms, barnacles and bryozoans; bull kelp, red algae and green algae fringe the islands. Waves have worn the Henty islands down over thousands of years until they barely rise above the water.
