Next, we take walk along the wild coastal line of Cape Woolamai over looking the spectacular Bass Strait. Pass by the Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit, one of Australia’s best-loved sporting venues, before we make our way to Swan Lake (seasonal) to watch the colourful selection of wetland birds frolic in their stunning surroundings.

We’ll also take you to Seal Rocks, where you can see playful seals basking in the sun, The Nobbies, The Blowhole, and Summerlands, a rugged surf beach tucked away beneath impressive cliffs.

To finish, we’ll watch the Penguin Parade as it makes its way up the beach as the day comes to a close. This iconic event is the perfect way to end a fantastic day. Afterwards, it’s time to head back to Melbourne and back to reality.
