The Barwon Heads Bridge is a road bridge and a separate pedestrian bridge over the Barwon River between Barwon Heads and Ocean Grove, Victoria (Australia), Australia. The bridge is the only crossing of the Barwon River between Geelong and the river mouth at Barwon Heads.

The original timber bridge was the longest surviving example of a timber stringer road bridge in Victoria. It was constructed in 1926-1927 entirely of timber. It was a "causeway" type structure; low and flat in profile with closely spaced piers but long in length. In 2006 condition report it was determined that the bridge has reached the end of its effective life and should be replaced with a new bridge.
