    Full description

    Spend the day exploring Phillip Island and Brighton Beach on this day trip from Melbourne. See native wildlife at the Wildlife Park and coastal views at Brighton Beach, Nobbies Boardwalk, and Phillip Island Penguin Parade.

    Start the day by being picked up by an air-conditioned vehicle with free wi-fi and head to Brighton Beach. Explore the area and take photos of the iconic Brighton beach boxes. From here, you can also see views of the Melbourne skyline.

    Next is a visit to Phillip Island Wildlife Park. Here you can see over 100 species of Australian animals who live on the 60-acre property. There will be time to purchase lunch here before driving to the next location.

    Stop at Nobbies Tourist and Information Center to learn about Nobbies Blowhole and Seal Rock precinct. Then walk along Nobbies Boardwalk and enjoy coastal views.

    After a relaxing walk along Nobbies Boardwalk, visit Phillip Island Penguin Parade. Purchase dinner at the venue before watching the penguins emerge from the rolling waves and make their way across the sand to their burrows. From here, head back to Melbourne and be dropped off at your accommodation.

    It was a nice day, very nice nature and lots of wallabies! Personally the Koala park wasn’t necessary for me but I couldn’t find a tour without any of such park. Matt our guide (and owner of the company WineHop&CoastalTours) was really nice and also shared information about the suburbs and villages we went through while making our way to Philip Island. Eventually at the pinguïn parade he guided us really well to a nice spot where we could see them really close.

    Driver was good, patient, knew his stuff. However, no working microphone on bus, hard to hear what the plan was. Lack of good air circulation, even though we were asked. Would have liked to have spent more time at the penguin facility.
