As the world’s largest island, Australia is home to some of the most unique wildlife on earth. With today’s Ouffer, we’re giving you the chance to see some of your favourite furry, finned and feathery friends up close at Phillip Island Nature Parks. For just $50, you get a 3 Parks Pass Family ticket plus a Baby Berrie penguin plush toy, all valued at $100! The Family ticket is good for 2 adults (16 years old and above) and 2 children (4 to 15 years old).
Phillip Island Nature Park is packed with fun sites to see and things to do for all the family. Start off your day super early to see the Penguin Parade. From specially designed viewing platforms, you can see these beautiful birdies in their natural habitat. For September, be sure to arrive around 5:00am -5:15am – it’s the crack of dawn but definitely worth the experience.
Next check out the Koala Conservation Centre where you can stroll through Australian bushland on elevated boardwalks and spot wildlife like koalas and birds in the treetops, and echidnas and wallabies in the scrub. The Koala Conservation Centre is also home to nocturnal brushtail and ringtail possums, and over 150 species of birds!
Then it’s on to the Nobbies Centre (entrance is free!) to check out the fur seals! Experience fantastic views of the Southern Ocean and learn more about the local marine life. Two kilometers offshore from the Nobbies is the breeding ground for over 20,000 Australian Fur Seals. Use the unique seal cameras at the Centre to get a really good look at these incredible creatures.
Finally, don’t miss the Churchill Island Heritage Farm, comprising historic buildings, heritage gardens and working farm. Visit the animal nursery and have a go at milking cows, blacksmithing or even sheep shearing!
All these attractions can be enjoyed by the whole family through this Ouffer! Whether you’re a visitor or a local, who could ignore the chance to see Australia’s wonderful wildlife up close and personal! Australian penguins are the smallest in the world and are around 33cm tall - and their feathers are not black like other types of penguins but are in fact a deep blue colour!
