You won't regret the 15-minute drive to the village of Timboon to taste its all-natural ice creams and sorbets, made with milk from local dairies. The flavors range from the regular---strawberry and vanilla---to the exotic---Turkish Delight, lime and coconut, or whisky cream, and change with the seasons.

“High Tea by the High Sea" is the reason to visit this luscious café, as well as its appetite-stimulating Southern Ocean view. Take a seat on a high-backed chair and indulge in three tiers of savory tarts, finger sandwiches, brownies, filled meringues, and more, including tea or coffee. The Grand High Tea (A$79 per person) includes a glass of sparkling rosé. Serving only on weekends from midday until 4 pm, it's a good idea to book ahead.
