Phillip Island Penguin Parade & Churchill Island Farm Bus Tour
从
Highlights
Explore the historic charm of Churchill Island Heritage Farm, a beautifully preserved working farm dating back to 1872. Visitors can step back in time and try traditional pioneer activities like cow milking, sheep shearing, stockwhip cracking, and blacksmithing demonstrations. Surrounded by scenic farmland, gardens, wetlands, and coastal walking trails, Churchill Island offers an authentic glimpse into Australia’s rural history. A café is available on-site for guests wishing to purchase lunch.
Next, head to The Nobbies, one of Phillip Island’s most spectacular coastal locations. Stroll along the boardwalks, taking in panoramic views of the rugged coastline and surrounding waters. Keep an eye out for Australia’s largest colony of Fur Seals at Seal Rocks, marvel at the dramatic ocean blowhole, and spot diverse birdlife along the cliffs and shore.
As evening falls, experience the world-famous Phillip Island Penguin Parade. Watch as hundreds of Little Penguins emerge from the surf and waddle across the beach to their burrows for the night—a heartwarming and unforgettable sight. Visitors can purchase dinner at the on-site café at the Penguin Parade, or, during the summer months when the penguins arrive later, enjoy time in the charming seaside town of Cowes for a meal before the evening spectacle.
After a memorable day filled with history, coastal beauty, and unique wildlife encounters, return comfortably to Melbourne.
