Please Note

  • Please bring your jumpers and water unless booked with us prior
  • Warm jacket or coat — temperatures drop sharply at the Penguin Parade after sunset
  • Scarf & beanie — sea winds at the Nobbies and Summerland Beach can be biting
  • Comfortable walking shoes — you'll be on your feet at Maru, the Nobbies boardwalk, and the parade viewing area
  • Gloves — great for the evening coastal section, easily pocketed if the day is warm
  • Sunscreen SPF 50+ — coastal UV in Victoria is strong even on cloudy days
  • Sunglasses — glare off Bass Strait is intense at the Nobbies
  • Hat or cap — a fitted cap or beanie works better than a broad brim in the coastal wind
  • Compact rain jacket — doubles as an extra wind layer at the parade if needed
  • Water bottle — stay hydrated throughout the day
  • Snacks — it's a long day on the road
  • Cash or card for meals — cafes available at Phillip Island
  • Camera or phone — great photo opportunities at Maru with the koalas and at the Nobbies
  • Portable power bank — a full day drains your battery fast
  • Card & small cash — for souvenirs, optional animal experiences at Maru, or food stops
  • ⚠️ Important: No flash photography at the Penguin Parade. Flash and bright phone screens distress the penguins. Keep phones on silent and screens dimmed once the parade begins.
