Barwon Heads is a quiet township, nestled on the banks of the Barwon River mouth. A minute out of the township, and over the hills, you hit Bass Strait. At Thirteen Beach, it is open for many activities. During lowtide, play a game of cricket, or get a tan. While during hightide, enjoy a good wave or two.
