Overview

The $126m Twelve Apostles Precinct Redevelopment is funded by the Geelong City Deal, which delivers infrastructure projects in the Shipwreck Coast region. The Project includes Visitor Experience Centre (delivered by Development Victoria), and the Private Sector Business Enablement Fund (delivered by others).

Once complete, the Twelve Apostles Precinct will change how visitors experience the region. It will provide safer and easier access to nature’s greatest attractions, while protecting the environment and cultural history at this spectacular location.
