Breakwater & Stingray Bay

The Warrnambool Breakwater is a great place for families to visit, offering a sheltered spot for fishing and a chance to see seals and stingrays. The breakwater was built between 1874 and 1890 to provide ships with greater protection from the Southern Ocean. Along its length, you can see remnants of the specially built railway line used in its construction. Today, it's a popular spot for fishing, with the option to cast lines on the bay side or use surf rods over the ocean side. Boats can also be launched at the breakwater, and during good whale seasons, you can walk to the end and watch Southern Rights swim by
