Description

Begin your adventure at Brighton Beach’s iconic bathing boxes, a kaleidoscope of color lining the sands of Dendy Street Beach. With the Melbourne skyline glimmering behind and Port Phillip Bay stretching out front, it’s a must-see destination for sunset strolls, seaside snaps, and soaking in a true Bayside vibe. Next, head to Maru Koala & Animal Park in Grantville for a hands-on wildlife experience. Pat koalas, feed albino kangaroos, and meet wombats, dingoes, and Tasmanian devils. After exploring the park and tackling Pirate Pete’s Mini-Golf, unwind at the Homestead Bistro, serving locally sourced meals, homemade treats, and seasonal specials with views of the animal enclosures. Continue to The Nobbies, perched at the rugged western tip of Phillip Island. Enjoy breathtaking coastal views, dramatic basalt cliffs, and a front-row seat to Australia’s largest fur seal colony at Seal Rocks. Wander the scenic boardwalks, marvel at the explosive blowhole, and spot nesting seabirds and Little Penguins beneath your feet. Finally, as the sun dips below the horizon, witness the enchanting Penguin Parade at Summerland Beach. Watch hundreds of Little Penguins waddle ashore to their burrows—a nightly ritual that’s both heartwarming and unforgettable. With conservation at its core, every visit supports vital research and habitat protection, making it a magical moment that also gives back to the environment.
