About Phillip Island Introduction

Phillip Island, situated in Western Port, is a place of natural beauty, sandy beaches, tranquil wetlands and unique wildlife experiences.

The Penguin Parade experience is sure to be the highlight of your visit! As the sun fades in the sky, the little penguins waddle up the beach to the safety of their homes in the sand dunes. Witness this magical procession – it is a treat never forgotten!

Stroll the Nobbies boardwalk to view the majestic rugged south coast and blowhole. Seal tours are also available Wildlife Coast Cruises.

Towering gums at the Koala Conservation Centre and woodlands of the Oswin Roberts Reserve provide a safe home for the island’s koala population. Koalas can be viewed at the close viewing area and treetop boardwalk at the visitor centre, or a gentle stroll can be taken through the woodlands of the Oswin Roberts Reserve.
