We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land on which you will visit, the Bunurong people. We pay our respects to their Elders past and present. Wominjeka (welcome) and we ask that you respect this land during your visit. Bunurong people know Phillip Island as Millowl. This is Bunurong Country and part of Victoria’s Kulin nation. All our Country is highly significant, every square inch, every rock, every leaf, every dune and every artefact. The coastline of Millowl contains layers and layers of burnt shell (kitchen middens). Some of these layers have gaps of over 1,000 years between them, where our people eventually sat directly over the same place again, over 1,000 years later, to do the same thing: make fire, cook food, eat together and tell stories.

Walk this way

Lace up your sneakers and step out to experience the wonders of Victoria’s island sanctuary on foot with these top walks, as recommended by locals.

PYRAMID ROCK TO BERRYS BEACH

This epic walk along the clifftops between the famous scenic lookout and popular surf beach reveals views of the ocean and surrounding farmland, as well as plenty of wildlife spotting opportunities. If you’re fit and active, you should be able to finish this return walk in about two hours, depending on how often you stop to take in the stunning scenery.

KITTY MILLER BAY WALK

At low tide, this 2km coastal walk will reveal the atmospheric, rusty remains of the SS Speke shipwreck. Be sure to wear good shoes as you’ll need to clamber over slippery rocks and sand on this scenic walk that rewards you with incredible views and a slice of maritime history.

CHURCHILL ISLAND LOOP

A cruisy wander around the relatively flat 4km Churchill Island loop trail is a good option for families, older people or anyone who wants to take it easy. You’ll take in pretty views of Western Port Bay, see forests of ancient trees and pass by protected coastal wetlands populated by many species of native seabirds and shorebirds.

GEORGE BASS COASTAL WALK

Starting in San Remo or Kilcunda, the George Bass Coastal Walk is a cliff top path which rises high above the pounding surf of Bass Strait and offers spectacular panoramic coastal views. It is 7km one way, so fuel up with lunch or brunch before you depart on this rewarding walk!.

CAPE WOOLAMAI CIRCUIT

Expect to be blown away by panoramic views of the coastline on this walk best suited to active people. Apart from the stunning views, migratory birds frequent this area, so keep an eye out for hooded plovers and short‑tailed shearwaters. Between May and October, you might just catch a glimpse of migrating humpbacks, orcas and southern right whales in the ocean below too.

SWAN LAKE

If you love birds, then don’t miss stretching your legs on this short circuit around a serene freshwater lake that’s populated by many bird species including cormorants and black swans. Wheelchair and pram‑accessible, there are also a couple of bird hides by the lake for birdwatching enthusiasts to bunker down in with their binoculars or camera.

OSWIN ROBERTS RESERVE AND RHYLL INLET

These peaceful reserves connect and offer beautiful quiet walks surrounded by migratory birds, butterflies, and if you’re lucky, wallabies and echidnas. The walking tracks in both of these areas are suitable for bicycles and the shorter loops are great for kids.

THE NOBBIES WALK

Follow the road past the Penguin Parade, through the scenic Summerland Peninsula, until you reach the very tip of the peninsula. Take in the stunning views as you explore the boardwalks and see the explosive blowhole in action! Keep your eyes out for a sighting of the iconic little penguins, seabirds and whales passing by in winter.

Rock stars

Atmospheric sea caves, red-tinged beach rocks and granite colonnades jutting out of the sea, Phillip Island’s rock formations have real star power.

PYRAMID ROCK

A walk along the coastal cliff top track from Berrys Beach will reveal Pyramid Rock rising up out of the Bass Strait.

RED ROCKS BEACH

Kids will love exploring Red Rocks Beach, Cowes’ quiet and calm bay beach home to red hued rock formations.

THE NOBBIES

Take in the wonder of the rugged, southern coast while wandering along the boardwalk at the Nobbies Reserve.

OLD GRANITE QUARRY

The OId Granite Quarry Walk reveals beautiful beach vistas and remnants of Cape Woolamai’s industrial history.

THE PINNACLES

Lace up your walking shoes to marvel at the wild beauty of The Pinnacles while doing the Cape Woolamai Coastal Walk.

FORREST CAVES

Accessible at low tide, these picturesque sea caves are popular with photographers who love to capture the sun filtering in through the crevices.

Meet the locals

Beyond its famous penguins, Phillip Island is home to a curious collection of unique birds, monotremes and aquatic wildlife. With a diversity of colourful native birds, marine mammals and icons of the Australian bush, Phillip Island is paradise for wildlife lovers.

Away from the traffic and noise of the city, the island is a great place to encounter wildlife.

Have fun ticking off some (or all) of these local wildlife experiences.

LITTLE PENGUINS

AUSTRALIAN FUR SEAL

The Penguin Parade is a timeworn Phillip Island tradition that has drawn visitors from far and wide for a century. Watch in wonder as hundreds of Little Penguins

from the sea at dusk,

clamber to their nests in the dunes.

CAPE BARREN GOOSE

Thousands of these large, grey geese with striking yellow‑green bills can be found on Phillip Island. In the 1950s, population numbers of this species were incredibly low, but a rescue and breeding program reversed this bird’s decline, with its population now considered stable.

Australia’s largest fur seal colony can be found just off the coast of Phillip Island. Jump on a Wildlife Coast Cruise and head out to Seal Rocks to see thousands of these marine mammals sunning themselves on rocks.

SHORT-BEAKED ECHIDNA

Active during both day and night, these small, spiky monotremes can occasionally be spotted in bushland or feeding on ants and grass on roadsides throughout the island. Be sure to drive with care to keep these special native critters safe.

waddle

then

KOALAS

Wander the treetop boardwalks at the Koala Conservation Reserve to see the resident koalas snoozing and feeding in the surrounding eucalypts, oblivious to the noisy birdlife.

PELICANS

Marvel at the majestic pelicans as they swoop to scoop a fish from the sea or visit the foreshore next to San Remo at midday to watch them lining up for a feed.

PURPLE SWAMPHEN

This attractive native bird with a bright red bill and purple‑blue breast can be found wandering in the water in Phillip Island’s wetland areas such as Swan Lake in Summerland.

SWAMP WALLABIES

These adorable wallabies have a distinctive light cheek stripe and are much smaller than a kangaroo. They are the only species found on the island and can be seen in grassy areas and are most active at dawn and dusk.

SHORT-TAILED SHEARWATER

Also known as mutton birds, this species of migratory bird can be found on Phillip Island from September to April. After making the epic journey from Alaska’s Aleutian Islands, these birds build a burrow into the sandy dunes of the coast, where they lay a single egg in November. Once the egg hatches in January, the chick is fed by its parents until it migrates back to Alaska in April.

WHALES

Humpback whales, southern right whales and sometimes even orcas can be spotted off the coast of Phillip Island from May to October. Head out on a Wildlife Coast Cruise to see them or stay on dry land and keep your eyes peeled along the Bass Coast Whale Trail. Some excellent vantage points on the island are Cape Woolamai, The Nobbies or Pyramid Rock.

EASTERN BARRED BANDICOOT

Until October 2022, these cute little creatures were marked as extinct in the wild. But now, thanks to the tireless work of the Phillip Island Nature Parks and a fox free island, there are two thriving populations on Churchill Island and the Summerland Peninsula. They live a solitary, secretive life foraging in open grassland at night and can be difficult to spot.

Staying safe while on the road

When visiting our region you’ll often see local wildlife on the roads and roadside. Help protect native wildlife (and yourself) by driving carefully.

SLOW DOWN

Reduce your speed to prevent collisions with wildlife.

STAY ALERT

Wildlife can be more active near roadsides and harder to see at sunrise and sunset.

EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED

Wildlife can be unpredictable. It’s hard to know what they’ll do next, so keep this in mind while travelling in the region.

BRAKE SAFELY

Always apply your brakes in a controlled manner.

AVOID SWERVING SUDDENLY

Never swerve if you see wildlife on the road and avoid swerving violently to avoid the animal as this can cause you to lose control of your vehicle.

REPORT INJURED WILDLIFE

If you encounter an injured animal call Wildlife Victoria on 03 8400 7300
