The Whalers Rest Motor Inn is located in a service road just off the Henty Hwy which is the main entrance to the historic birthplace of Victor Portland. On entrance to Portland the Hwy becomes a double Hwy and we are approximately 2kms from the beginning of this road on the left.If you happen to miss the motel and you get to a shell service station you have gone past us by 1km. If you enter Portland via the coast of SA you need to travel north for approx. 4km from the main CBD.

Portland is situated at the western end of the Great Ocean Road. We are 6hr drive from Adelaide or 4 hours from Melbourne via the inland route. If you travel the great ocean road we are a full days drive from Geelong. We recommend that if time permits you should use two days for the Great Ocean Rd.
