Phillip Island is most known for its Penguin Parade and great surfing beaches, as well as the annual Moto GP.
Phillip Island is approximately 2 hours drive from Melbourne and is well known for the great surfing beaches on the southern site of the island.
See the Penguin Parade every evening where local fairy penguins waddle up from the beach to their burrows to sleep.
Explore the wildlife on Phillip Island and experience penguins, sea lions, Australian fur seals at Seal Rocks and koalas at the Koala Conservation Centre. You can find a pelican feeding everyday at midday at the San Remo jetty.
At the Wildlife Park you can see a mix of Australian wildlife and hand feed kangaroos and wallabies.
You can also spend some lazy days on one of the several beaches there are on Phillip Island. There is a beach for each taste - whether you want a relaxed swimming beach up to wild ocean beaches which are good for surfing, fishing and kayaking.
Beside the surfing and animals, Phillip Island is also known for the Australian 500cc Motorcycle Grand Prix in October, part of the international circuit.
