Activities| Phillip Island is a jewel of an island set
in beautiful Westernport Bay. It is a thriving seaside
and rural community of 6000 residents who share this
unique natural attraction with visitors and tourists 365
days a year. Surrounded by pristine beaches, there are
endless activities to fill the day, swim, fish, surf,
sail or simply marvel at the abundant rock-pools. |
| Every evening you can see the fairy
penguins who magically appear at dusk and parade along
the beach to nest. Phillip Island is also home to one of
the largest fur seal colonies in the Southern Hemisphere. |
| Take in a
nature walk or hire a bike to explore the island at your
own pace. |
| The Island's koalas have their own
special enclosure where viewing can be made from
specially built boardwalks. There are also vast numbers
of seabirds and other native birds to be
seen.
Elsewhere wallabies and echidnas can be seen in the
grassy scrublands. |
| The ever popular Nobbies and Seal
Rocks on the south eastern tip of Phillip Island possess
a new ultra-modern Tourist Centre with films, auditory
cassette guides and telescopes, and the chance to get a
close-up view of the seals in their natural habitat |
| Other attractions include a Bay
Connections Cruise from Cowes to Seal Rocks to see these
fabulous creatures in their natural habitat. This is a
'must do' and is an unforgettable few hours. |
