People power has been unleashed in Port Fairy to protest the plan by Norwegian energy company Equinor to drill for oil in the Great Australian Bight.
Over 350 people joined the 'Hands across the Sand' event on South Beach in a show of solidarity against the energy giant's exploration proposal.
Event organiser Ben Druitt said he was happy with the attendance given the number of Fight for the Bight events that had been held recently.
"The Fight for the Bight issue has been big all around the country," Mr Druitt said.
"Hopefully this becomes a serious issue for the election."
