Small-Group Phillip Island Penguin Parade Day Tour from Melbourne
Available languages
From AUD 165
Overview
Here’s the very best of Victoria’s wildlife experiences. The Penguin Parade is an absolute ‘must’ on every visitor’s itinerary, but this tour gives you so much more.
First stop is Moonlit Sanctuary Wildlife Conservation Park, where you can get up close to wallabies on the wallaby walk (you may see little joeys peeking out of their mothers’ pouches). Enjoy a ranger providing unique insights and information during the daily koala presentation.
Then we travel on to the spectacular Cape Woolamai Surf Beach. Located on the southern coast of Phillip Island, this beach is exposed to the ocean swells and the surf here is truly impressive. It's also not uncommon to see dolphins or seals swimming in the waters just off the beach.
We also visit the Nobbies and Australia’s largest Fur Seal colony at Seal Rocks. Finally, the ultimate attraction: hundreds of Little Penguins emerging from the ocean and waddling across the beach to their sand dune burrows.

Watching the penguins coming in from the ocean.

5.0Watching the penguins coming in from the ocean. I think it's wonderful that the government has turned this penguin habitat into a nature preserve so that the penguins can live there safely.
Perfect time

4.0The tour is amazing. Our driver did an excellent job with advice for photos and the best viewing areas. He was friendly and helpful. One criticism is the pickup. We stayed at the Grand Hyatt, address 123 Collins. However, the car entrance is on Russell street. We confirmed with the tour company it would pick us up on the Collins street side by chat and I called them too. “Yes, definitely on Collins” they confirmed. They picked up on Russell. This is easy for them to get correct. The Grand Hyatt on Collins, pick up at the Russell Street entrance. It caused the start of the trip to be more stressful than necessary.
Beautiful Phillip Island
