Port Campbell, Coastal administrative division in Corangamite Shire, Australia.
Port Campbell stands at coordinates -38.6196293 latitude and 142.995366 longitude, nestled within Victoria's southwestern administrative region along the Australian coast.
The settlement originated in 1843 when whaler Captain Alexander Campbell documented the inlet's location, leading to land sales in the late 1870s.
The maritime influence shapes local activities through regular community festivals, fishing traditions, and preservation of shipwreck histories along the coastline.
The Corangamite Shire Council manages essential services for residents, including waste collection, infrastructure maintenance, and community facility operations.
Between Cape Otway and Port Fairy, numerous maritime vessels met their fate during 1840-1920, resulting in this stretch being named the Shipwreck Coast.
