Bells Beach is the epicentre of Australia's surf culture, which is documented in fascinating detail at Torquay's Surfworld Museum. When the Rip Curl Pro action is over you can return to Bells Beach to ride a wave in homage to the competition's top-notch action. If your surfing experience extends no further than applauding from ashore, take a lesson and experience the thrill of catching a wave at least once.
