• San Remo - Spend some time exploring the charming village of San Remo, known for its golden beaches, the impressive Pelicans that visit, and the famous Phillip Island bridge.
• Cowes - This is where you will embark on your 2-hour Wildlife Cruise! Delight in the sight of thousands of seals, dolphins, birdlife, and many other stunning views!

After your cruise, you will have some leisure time in Cowes. As Phillip Island’s main commercial center, Cowes is a lively area filled with restaurants, cafes, breweries, and boutique shops.

You will have the freedom to explore at your own pace. Our guide will highlight the key spots and then give you the liberty to roam.

Visit the popular brewery, relax at the pub with a view of the waterfront, indulge in some shopping, take a walk along the jetty, or even enjoy a swim in the sparkling blue waters. The choice is yours!

• Koala Conservation Reserve - This is an optional alternative to spending time in Cowes. Our guide will drop you off here, allowing you to wander through the beautiful native Australian bushland, where you are sure to see Koalas in their natural environment, along with other native Australian wildlife. Please note, it is now illegal to touch or hold a Koala.
• Flynns Beach - One of the most stunning beaches on Phillip Island, known for its golden sands and shimmering waters. You will have the opportunity to walk on the soft sand, admire the beautiful horizon, and enjoy the sea air at this local beach, a favorite of Chris Hemsworth since childhood.
• The Nobbies Centre - Already one of Phillip Island’s main attractions due to its sheer beauty, we visit this breathtaking spot during Golden Hour, offering a perfect view over the sparkling waters and rocky cliffs.

Savor this moment with a glass of sparkling wine as you take in the views and stroll along the boardwalk, enjoying spectacular sights and glimpses of native wildlife.

We depart from here via the back roads, providing unparalleled views over Westernport Bay and Bass Strait, with even more wildlife to observe.

• Phillip Island Nature Parks - Penguin Parade - A “must-do” while in Melbourne/Victoria, the Penguin Parade has long been the highlight of Phillip Island.

We arrive early enough for you to explore this world-class visitor center and grab a bite to eat from the cafe if you wish.

You will then proceed to the Penguin Viewing Platform, awaiting the arrival of the stars of the show - the Little Penguins.

As the sun sets, your ranger-guide will share information about these adorable creatures, and you will witness thousands of them making their way onto the beach and up the hillside.

Stroll along the boardwalk as you get within inches of these native Australian Penguins, admiring their uniqueness and charm.

After experiencing this delightful spectacle, we board the bus to return to Melbourne, carrying plenty of wonderful memories from the journey.
