A site for observing 33 cm pygmy dwarf penguins (native to Australia), the smallest of their species.

Every evening, at dusk, hundreds of pygmy penguins leave the sea and head in columns towards their shelters dug in the dunes. These penguins are native to Australia and are the smallest of their species with a size of 33 cm. Placed on an amphitheater on the seashore, at dusk, you will see the smallest penguins of the world coming back from the sea to join their nest. The nights are cool, even in summer, so bring a wool coat and a windbreaker. Arrive one hour before the estimated time to be well placed.

La célèbre Parade des Penguins de Phillip Island vous permet d’observer de près les plus petits manchots au monde quand il reviennent sur la plage et dans terriers pour nourrir leur famille.

What a circus! Moreover Visitor Center looks like a big top. You will feel the pressures which had to be played between the tourist requirements and the guardians of Nature: on the one hand, the concrete steps facing the sea that can accommodate hundreds of spectators every evening; other, a very well designed (vision in nests penguins) despite its eternal shop… You can see the same show on the other beaches on the Great Ocean Road or more intimate Tasmania but…
