The sight of hundreds of Little Penguins waddling to their beach-side nests at Phillip Island is one of the world’s most unique nature experiences. Departing Melbourne late afternoon, you will soon find yourself strolling boardwalks overlooking the basalt outcrops known as ‘The Nobbies’. Absorb coastal views at the lookout points set amongst natural sea bird gardens and be transfixed by the thundering blowhole. Keep your eye out for your first sighting of the Little Penguin and as the sun begins to set, travel off-road to spot wild wallabies and Cape Barren geese, as they graze at dusk. Enjoy a light picnic style meal prior to the arrival of the penguins. On arrival, take an informative journey through the colony then take your seat away from the crowds in your choice of premium beachfront viewing stands. Watch in awe as members of the 32,000 strong penguin colony emerge from the water, cross the beach then waddle their way to their nests and once you have had enough excitement, your local guide will return you directly to Melbourne.~~~~ |
