The Flagstaff Hill Maritime Precinct is situated within an hour's drive of the 12 Apostles at Warrnambool on the Great Ocean Road.
Flagstaff Hill is Warrnambool's premier attraction providing the vital link between the culture and heritage of the Shipwreck Coast and the contemporary Great Ocean Road experience.
BY DAY...an interactive, 1870s maritime village & museum. Flagstaff Hill's State Heritage listed site and maritime village is set on 10 acres and reflects the pioneering atmosphere of an 1870's coastal port.
Experience first hand the perils of early sea travel as you explore The Gravesend Theatre, audiovisual presentations, interactive displays, and the relics & treasures recovered from various shipwrecks in the Great Circle Gallery, and of course the priceless Minton earthenware statue, the Loch Ard Peacock, Australia's most valuable shipwreck relic.
The Flagstaff Hill Precinct also contains the state heritage listed Lady Bay Lighthouse complex and Warrnambool Garrison area. Some of the world's rarest and most significant cannons are contained in the Warrnambool Garrison area.
