Ocean Grove, Administrative division in Greater Geelong, Australia.

Ocean Grove extends along the eastern side of Barwon River mouth, featuring coastal landscapes with sandy shores and nature reserves.

In 1882, Victorian Methodists selected this location near Bass Strait to establish a religious community, following the model of their American counterparts.

The streets of Ocean Grove display names of Methodist community figures, reflecting the religious foundations that shaped the town's development.

The town contains the largest shopping center on the Bellarine Peninsula, with multiple supermarkets serving both residents and seasonal visitors.

A historical covenant from the original land subdivision prohibits the sale of alcoholic beverages within the town boundaries.
