The Aire River rises below the Otway Ranges in a remote forestry area southeast of the locality of Beech Forest.

The river generally flows west by south then south through the Great Otway National Park, joined by three minor tributaries, before reaching its mouth and emptying into Bass Strait west of Cape Otway.

[3] It was named by the surveyor George Smythe after the River Aire in Yorkshire, England.
