DINOSAURS are back in the Otways!

Otway Dinosaurs is a fantastic new attraction that brings the story of Dinosaur Cove to life.

Dinosaur Cove is just outside of Apollo Bay where hundreds of palaeontologists and volunteers chipped, jackhammered and blasted away at the Otways foreshore to uncover a raft of dinosaur bone fragments and skulls. The scientists and volunteers found ancient flood deposits that revealed some amazing creatures, changing the way we look at dinosaurs.

The current exhibition, Wildlife of Gondwana Exhibition, is a major science exhibition that has smashed museum attendance records around the world is now open in Apollo Bay. It tells the story of world-first and unique discoveries in the Otways.

Seen by millions of people in Taiwan, Italy, Argentina and Singapore, the exhibition is located just five minutes' drive from Apollo Bay, and showcases the fossil record from the Great Southern Continent.
