Penguin Parade - Summerlands,VIC

5 /5 Bella B: Review date 24.05.2025. The Ultimate Adventure Tour was absolutely incredible! Everything was perfectly organized, and the experience far exceeded my expectations. We had a private beach away from the crowds and got to see penguins up close—it was magical. The views were stunning, and the guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate. If you are looking for a magical and memorable evening, I cant recommend the Ultimate Adventure Tour enough.

5 /5 Xavier Andrews: My experience at the Penguin Parade Phillip Island was excellent for my friends and my family. It is relatively easy to find a car park the day I went to the Penguin Parade Phillip Island recently. Then you enter the main building where inside you can see the history or buy products related to the penguins. Then the tickets to get to the Penguin Parade are easy to find and are worth it. The boardwalk is also a really great experience as you can see the penguins huts and bushes around it. The sunset through the ocean is also beautiful as well as it gets to dusk. The viewing and seating area was easy to find and Ive had no problems in my personal experience. As it gets to dusk, you can see the unique Midnight Blue and White penguins exiting out of the ocean and onto the sand and also to their huts. It was also really cool to see a group of 10 penguins in a row going to their homes. Would highly recommend going there.

5 /5 Tawinkarn Ariyavaradhorn: We really enjoy this place. Is it touristy? - yes. Should you visit? - absolutely! Please make sure you get the tickets online before coming as they might be sold out. Don’t expect to see like hundreds of penguins walking on the beach but you will meet many of them while walking back to the visitor center. I really appreciate the effort of staff and everyone trying to explain as much as they know about the penguins whenever we have questions, so please be a nice human by following their instruction. Stay quiet, enjoy the sunset, take any trash back with you and please do not take photos after sunset. Leave this world a better place for our next generation, please.

5 /5 Lidia: Amazing experience it was much better than expected. They recommended booking in advance and arriving, at least an hour prior sunset, it really helped. There are cafes and food so you can bring in while waiting for the sunset and the penguins, but watch out the seagulls! Before entering you can also learn at the discovery centre. Penguins arrived at sunset, so times may differ during the year, but is very well explained in their webpage. It is an amazing experience for all ages, and it’s also suitable for wheelchair or people with walking difficulties as they offer a buggy. No photos or videos are allowed, you better enjoy the experience without cameras or phones as it is a lifetime one! Best part was seeing them from the boardwalk, we could see how they behaved, mate or made their way to sleep. Beach time while waiting was enjoyable as well, as we waited seeing the beautiful sunset by the beach. Staff was nice and knowledgeable about penguins, but their priorities were the little penguins.
