Bring a snorkel to get a better glimpse!</p> <p>Katabanook Walk leads inland from the campground. The short walk meanders along a fern-laden trail shaded by tall, twisted Manna Gum trees.</p> <p>Blanket Bay also serves as an overnight stop along the iconic <a href="/places-to-see/parks/great-otway-national-park/things-to-do/great-ocean-walk">Great Ocean Walk</a>.
