Aireys Inlet is a town located on the Great Ocean Road, southwest of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

Aireys Inlet is located between Anglesea and Lorne, and joined with Fairhaven, Moggs Creek, and Eastern View to the west.

Aireys Inlet is also famous for Split Point Lighthouse which was featured in the popular children's TV show Round The Twist.

In the early 19th century, before British settlement, the escaped convict William Buckley lived here in a primitive hut eating fish, shellfish, wild raspberries and sugar ants.

Aireys Inlet possesses an oceanic climate (Köppen: Cfb), with tepid, relatively dry summers and mild, wetter winters.

Aireys Inlet was devastated by the infamous 1983 Ash Wednesday bushfires in which a large number of houses were burnt down.
