Description
Our two day wildlife adventure of the Gippsland region will bring you back to nature’s wonders. On the first day we meet some of Australia’s most famous native animals at Moonlit Sanctuary Wildlife Conservation Park such as koalas and kangaroos as well as some lesser known endangered species like the Eastern Quoll and Fluffy Gliders. From here we travel to historic Churchill Island and visit stunning Cape Woolamai surf beach and the Nobbies before arriving at Summerland beach for the nightly penguin parade. Home to Victoria’s largest colony of little penguins, Summerland beach provides a spectacular backdrop to the world famous penguin parade. Watch as hundreds of little penguins make their way across the beach and go home for the night. We stay overnight in a charming cabin and you can take some time to explore the island further. On the second day we travel towards the most southerly point of mainland Australia, Wilsons Promontory or “the Prom” as it is affectionately known to many people. This National Park is one of Victoria’s most loved and cherished natural attractions. This wildlife haven will inspire and intrigue even the most discerning traveller, with its panoramic views, pristine white beaches, coastal forests, cool climate rainforests and well preserved walking tracks. The prom is home to many marsupials, such as kangaroos and wombats, native birds and other native animals such as emus, which with a little luck you are able to see up close. The best way to explore the Prom is on foot so you will no doubt enjoy our hike along some spectacular tracks and be entertained by the pure white quartz ‘singing sands’ ay Squeaky Beach as you walk towards Tidal River, the centre of the National Park.
