Every night at sunset, the truly incredible spectacle of the Penguin Parade occurs on the beaches of Phillip Island. The local colony of little penguins emerges from the water to make their way to the burrows in the sand dunes - and this tour is your chance to witness this unforgettable phenomenon in real life!
We’ll spend the day exploring top attractions including Moonlit Sanctuary Wildlife Conservation Park and the Nobbies, before settling in on the sand, ready for the main show at the Penguin Parade. Including all entrance fees, this great value tour is the best way to discover the wild coastal scenery and delightful animals of Phillip Island.

Though a long day, the trip was very enjoyable even before seeing the penguins, starting with the Moonlite Sanctuary. The driver was nice and relaxed and very capable of driving places to see beautiful ocean views.

Long day, bus schedule was changed had to wait standing in rain 1 extra hour. Only 9 Peguins came marching onto shore. False advertising.

Such an amazing tour. Penguins are so so cute and got to see lots of other wildlife too. Elliot our guide was knowledgeable, funny, and even let me me steal his Spotify playlist. Even with the terrible weather it was such an amazing experience!!
