The Cape Woolamai Morning Cruise was a fantastic way to see Phillip Island from the water. We spotted seals lounging on the rocks and got great views of the dramatic coastline. The crew were friendly and knowledgeable, sharing interesting facts about the local wildlife and geology throughout the trip. Well worth doing if you’re in the area

It was so memorable as it was my birthday 🎂. I loved the complete ride , cruise view rock was too good and dolphins 🐬, and also the penguins parade , the beach view everything was so good and overwhelming. So excited to watch penguins but they were less in number comparatively as it is winter times ,the crew suggested to visit in summer for more numbers . Overall it was a memorable birthday to me

Loved loved the cake with my liitle one. Loved that the staff were available to take photos for my group. The best part of the cruise was when we hit the "bumpy waters".

Marvel at the rugged coastline and the towering granite cliffs of Cape Woolamai rising majestically from the sea on this 1-hour morning cruise.

Keep an eye out for dolphins swimming in the water or fur seals laying on a rock under the sun.

Snack on delicious cake and coffee and marvel at the dramatic sea caves along the breathtaking shoreline while listening to live commentary about the region’s geography and past..

Did you know? Cape Woolamai hosts the largest short-tailed shearwater colony, where over a million seabirds nest and take flight each year!

Expert local commentary

Wildlife spotting and bird watching
