This afternoon/evening we did the Penguin Parade at Phillip Island. What a beautiful experience we had. We absolutely loved it and recommend this beautiful experience.
A great place to relax and go for holidays! Something kids would love to see nature and those little penguins! Worth the wait staying at the penguin parade until 11:30pm!
very worth the 2h drive from melbourne cbd to see the penguins coming back home from the ocean! never seen anything like this
Philip Island Wildlife Park is part of the Philip Island Nature Park. We bought the 3 park combo pass.There’s a section for free roaming kangaroos and joeys. And a section where all the koalas are. If you are lucky, you can come as close to the koalas along the railing.
