Great walks With coastal walking tracks occupying vast stretches of the Bass Coast and more than a quarter of Phillip Island conserved for the environment, nature lovers are spoiled for choice when it comes to walking trails. Add these five key trails to your must‑walk list:
1. George Bass Coastal Walk Breathe in the fresh, salty air on this walk that follows the footsteps of explorer George Bass. Leaving from San Remo, the clifftop path offers incredible views of Bass Strait. At 7km one-way, be sure to bring a packed lunch and drinks.
2. Rhyll Inlet Recognised for its tremendous biological diversity, a peaceful walk around the pram-friendly mangrove boardwalks of Rhyll Inlet will reveal unique bird species. As an important wetland habitat for migratory wading birds, this quiet spot is the ideal place for a gentle walk and picnic lunch.
3. Inverloch Foreshore Walk A shared pathway with views of Anderson Inlet and Point Smythe, this 90 minute walk includes access to exercise stations, playgrounds and picnic areas.
4. Cape Woolamai Walk This blockbuster walk is a must-do for fit, active hikers not afraid to raise a sweat. The spectacular views on this circuit to the Pinnacles provide great views during whale season and more.
5. Kitty Miller Bay Walk This beautiful coastal walk rewards you with spectacular views and – during low tide - the chance to see what remains of the SS Speke Shipwreck.
