Phillip Island
The world's smallest penguins waddling ashore at dusk in a nightly parade watched from grandstands, a motorsport circuit that hosts a MotoGP round, and seal colonies visible from a boat without ever leaving the bay.
The best time to visit Phillip Island is Sep–Nov, Mar–May, when typical daytime highs reach about 20°C (67°F). Local time there is 09:06 (UTC+10).
