ITINERARY:

Discover one of Australia’s most spectacular wildlife experiences when hundreds of tiny penguins waddle ashore as you get up close to Australian wildlife, enjoy the scenic coastline of Phillip Island, and witness one of Australia’s most spectacular wildlife attractions! You can also get up close to koalas on Phillip Island.

The Phillip Island Koala Conservation Reserve is our first stop of the day, where we’ll make some new friends with our Aussie animals as we stroll along the boardwalk trails in the natural woodlands looking for koalas. Guests will be able to support local economies by purchasing food either in Cowes or at the Penguin Parade as meals are not provided.

There are several reasons to visit Phillip Island, including its natural beauty, spectacular beaches, rugged cliffs, and unique wildlife; there is then a trip to the Nobbies which is located at the western end of the island. Experience the majestic rocky coast and views of an Australian fur seal colony and spot wild wallabies and native birds on a back road journey to the main show at the Penguin Parade.

The Penguin Parade Visitor Centre at Summerland Beach is undoubtedly one of the most fascinating ecotourism attractions in the world, offering guests the opportunity to learn more about penguins and the conservation of wildlife. At sunset, we will be witness to some of the world’s tiniest penguins waddling ashore as they emerge from the sea. It’s truly an unforgettable experience that you won’t forget in a hurry!
