Shopping
Visit Surf City - Roxy, Quiksilver, Billabong, Rip Curl, Ghanda, Patagonia and more!
Torquay is rich in surf history, being the birthplace of some of these brands.
Surf City well worth a visit in the main stores, as well as the outlets (in Baines Crescent) - as the locals do!!
Tucked in behind is a Surf Museum in the information centre also well worth a look!

Following the walking path from Salty dog, there are two children's playgrounds.
One is on the Esplanade between Zeally Bay Rd, and Gilbert Street. This is shaped like a ship.
One is near Anderson street on the Esplanade, parallel to the Norfolk Pine trees.
