Experience the magic of Phillip Island on this half-day afternoon tour, featuring a scenic visit to The Nobbies and the world-famous Penguin Parade at sunset.

Experience the best of Phillip Island on this unforgettable half-day afternoon tour, designed for travellers who want to see the island’s most iconic highlights without committing to a full-day itinerary. Depart Melbourne mid-afternoon and relax as we head directly to the spectacular Nobbies coastline, home to dramatic cliff tops, wild ocean views and the famous boardwalk overlooking Bass Strait.

Wander the winding boardwalks and breathe in the fresh coastal air as you look for shearwaters, seabirds and — if you are lucky — the blowhole in action. This windswept headland is one of Phillip Island’s most scenic locations and a perfect place to soak up the island’s natural beauty.

As the sun sets, we make our way to the world-renowned Penguin Parade — the highlight of the experience. Settle in at the viewing platforms or boardwalks and witness hundreds of Little Penguins waddling ashore after a day of fishing. Listen to their soft calls, watch them shuffle back to their burrows in the dunes, and enjoy the magic of this nightly wildlife ritual. It is one of Australia’s most memorable natural encounters and a must-do when visiting Melbourne.

With comfortable transport, a friendly local guide, guaranteed Penguin Parade entry, and a relaxed half-day schedule, this tour is ideal for couples, families and international visitors wanting a rewarding wildlife experience without the long day of travel.
