After exploring Phillip Island during a beautiful sunny day, we made our way to the Penguin Parade area, waiting patiently for the sun to set and the night sky to darken and then:: walaahhhh!! The first couple gorgeous little fellows started coming out of the waves unsure at first, but then with a few other friends (as the say safety in numbers) they made their way to the usual little path to bring food n comfort to the babies in their nest!! It has been an amazing experience, also to book tickets for the event trough Headout was so easy without any hassles!!

Families, be aware, if you book through Headout app, you cannot access the family ticket discount. Book directly through Phillip Island Penguin Parade website and save some $. Penguins were super cute! So many visitors ignored all the instructions given by the guides to protect them - not sure why these people come if not interested in conservation - more interested for the perfect photo for social media. This detracted from the experience a little.

Sitting on the sand by the wild Bass Strait, wind in our faces, we waited patiently as the sun set. And then magically, in small groups of 6-10 the fairy penguins emerged from the surf and began there long slow waddle up the beach, into the dunes, to the safety of their burrows. A wonderful nature experience at Philip Island, very well managed and highly recommended.

Watching the little penguins come back from the ocean and make their way across the beach was definitely the highlight of our visit. It was such a special and memorable experience for our family, especially for our two girls. The staff were friendly, helpful and professional throughout the visit. I especially appreciated how clearly they reinforced the no-camera policy to help protect the penguins and reduce disturbance. The beautiful weather was also a lovely bonus and made the experience even more enjoyable.

Although a cold windy night , the little penguins did not disappoint, they were incredibly cute and astonishing that they come in every night to settle on their homes. What was disappointing were the amount of people in complete disregard for what they were told and not use phones after sunset , many many times they told and still I saw so many being used on the beach and boardwalk. I hope the tradition continues and isn't spoilt by those that continue to disregard rules .
