Begin your private Penguin Parade Express with a convenient pickup from your Melbourne location. Enjoy a comfortable, approximately 2-hour direct drive to Phillip Island, passing through picturesque regional towns and countryside along the way. This scenic journey offers a glimpse of Victoria’s coastal and rural landscapes before arriving at the world-famous Penguin Parade.

The Nobbies boardwalk offers sweeping views of Bass Strait. Offshore at Seal Rocks, you’ll find Australia’s largest fur seal colony. On some days, you may spot them basking on the rocks or swimming in the surf

Every evening at sunset, hundreds of little penguins return from the ocean after a day of fishing. They’re the smallest penguins in the world, only about 33 cm tall. It’s one of Australia’s most magical wildlife encounters. Please remember: no photography or video is allowed, as it can harm the penguins’ sensitive eyes.

After witnessing the unforgettable Penguin Parade, relax on the comfortable return drive back to Melbourne. Travel through the quiet regional roads of Phillip Island and Victoria’s countryside as you unwind after the evening experience. The journey back to Melbourne takes approximately 2 hours, with drop-off at your original pickup location.
