Phillip Island is the perfect day trip from Melbourne, located just 90 minutes away. The island is famous for its population of Fairy penguins and each sunset you can watch them make their way home from the sea. Choosing from either short or full-day tours, you’ll be able to view the Penguin Parade from stadium seating, walk along elevated boardwalks and visit the Penguin Parade Visitor Centre.
There is also a wealth of other wildlife experiences, and visitors can feed kangaroos and maybe even glimpse a koala.
Motor sports enthusiasts will know Phillip Island for the famous Australian motorcycle Grand Prix and for the truly daring you can even take a lap or two of the circuit.
