Experience Phillip Island with locals, journeying from Melbourne for a full day of boutique wine, beachside charm, and native wildlife—ending with the iconic Penguin Parade at Summerland Beach.
After a friendly welcome and complimentary barista coffee at the Melbourne Arts Centre, we head to coastal San Remo, the gateway to Phillip Island. Our first indulgence: a cellar door wine tasting and grazing platter at the award-winning Phillip Island Winery, followed by a gourmet lunch.
Then, guests discover charming Cowes, with its pristine beaches and local boutiques—or upgrade to intimate koala viewing at the Koala Conservation Reserve.
Next, we continue to The Nobbies Phillip Island, where golden hour brings sweeping ocean views and wildlife encounters. A celebratory glass of sparkling wine sets the tone for the evening.
We end at the world-famous Penguin Parade at Summerland Beach, where a general viewing ticket provides full immersion in this world-class wildlife experience.
