PRICE: $90
per person

 

Experience the very best of Phillip Island in just half a day with this unforgettable express tour.

At The Nobbies, wander along scenic boardwalks overlooking the rugged cliffs and sweeping ocean views of Bass Strait. Take in panoramic vistas across the coastline, look out toward the Nobbies and Seal Rocks, and keep an eye out for local wildlife. If conditions are just right, you may even witness the famous blowhole erupting with the power of the southern swell.

Then, prepare for the magic of the Penguin Parade, one of Australia’s most iconic wildlife experiences. As the sun sets, watch hundreds of little penguins waddle ashore after a day of fishing, making their way back to their dune burrows. Phillip Island is home to the world’s largest colony of little penguins, and each evening offers a front-row seat to their charming journey from sea to shore. View the spectacle from dedicated platforms and boardwalks designed to bring you close to the action while protecting the penguins and their habitat.

This tour is perfect for guests who want to head straight to the highlights, enjoy a shorter outing, or add a truly memorable wildlife encounter to their Melbourne stay.
