Activity itinerary

Maru Koala and Animal Park

  • 50m
  • Admission ticket included
The popular Maru Koala and Animal Park serves as our initial destination on the tour. This location allows visitors to interact closely with Australia's native wildlife species. The chance to feed kangaroos by hand and photograph koalas while gaining knowledge about wombats, dingos, emus, and Tasmanian devils provides an entertaining educational experience for everyone, which should be included in any Phillip Island day tour.

The Nobbies Centre

  • 1h
Our exploration continues on the scenic unpaved Boulevard Drive, which runs alongside the Southern Ocean, offering stunning views. The western tip of Phillip Island presents a dramatic scene of rugged cliffs beside crashing waves and open grasslands swept by the wind. Take a leisurely walk along the boardwalk at Nobbies Lookout while enjoying the stunning sea views. This windswept headland presents an ideal opportunity to breathe in the salty air while capturing photos of the wild coastline and experiencing its raw beauty.

Phillip Island Nature Parks - Penguin Parade

  • 2h
  • Admission ticket included
The Penguin Parade is the ultimate highlight of our penguin island tours from Melbourne. The beach becomes a gathering place for adorable penguins as they waddle ashore during sunset. Penguins return to land after a day at sea to move toward their burrows. Relax in the tiered viewing area or select premium seating to get a better view of the event. Australia's renowned Melbourne penguin tour experience stands out as an unforgettable adventure.
