It was great to kick back on Long Beach, listen to the surf and watch the sun set and sip wine. A few days without an itinerary is very relaxing and Long Beach is the best place to do it. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kim C., Metung, Victoria 15 Mar 2019 #### Looked better than it was.
