There are some pretty distinctive things that Australia has, that no other place can boast of. Some of those are the most amazing animals. There are tours that will take you for a day to see some of these unusual creatures in Melbourne. Phillip Island is one of the better places to get up close to many of these native creatures.
The sheer volume of fur seal colony found along the naturally beautiful southern coastline of Philip Island boasts to be the largest on the Continent. This is an incredible view to behold by anyone and never gets boring or sedate. While on many of the local tours, a stop off in the Warrook Cattle Farm is always ready to let you experience and partake in feeding of kangaroos and the always adorable wallabies. This is great training for feeding the other animals that call this place home and need fed daily.
The Koala Conservation Center is not something that any first time visitor will want to miss. These darling fluffy creatures live here in their natural habitat. Near here is the Phillip Island Visitors Information Center. This is a fun stop for the curious because of the abundance of education info and displays. For a nice lunch you can drop into the town of Cowes, which is known as a holiday retreat for fishermen and other beach fans.
The little penguins are a large part of the attraction to this part of the world. The tour companies make it easy to enjoy this trip with a pick-up from the hotel, with a drop off when the day is done. Because of the popularity of these little penguins there are several different special tours for people to enjoy.
Many people are happy to view them from afar. If you are one of those people that wish to get right up close they will accommodate you for a different ticket price. There is even a private viewing of the penguin parade that is limited to just 10 people for maximum enjoyment. A lovely setting and an abundance of animals in natural settings make this an incredible day trip.
