Family fun – Phillip Island
Create a lifetime of memories of long summer holidays on Phillip Island for your own family, as you hit the beaches, visit attractions and make new furry friends.
Fun with water and wildlife
Spend lazy days by the water, choosing from shallow swimming beaches and wild ocean beaches for surfing, fishing, swimming and kayaking.
Encounter native wildlife, including penguins, seals, koalas, birds, kangaroos and wallabies, and learn all about their habitats and behaviours at the educational interpretive centres.
Kid-friendly attractions
Let the kids loose in mazes, play mini golf, race go karts, fly over the island in a helicopter, fish for trout, get to work on a farm and indulge at a chocolate factory.
Time your visit to catch one of the island's great events. Soak up the atmosphere of summer surfing carnivals and the Motorcycle Grand Prix in October.
Phillip Island Nature Parks runs special holiday programs for kids. Contact local visitor information centres for details.
