Your experience

Step back in time and experience nature with a visit to Churchill Island

Enjoy a peaceful escape to Churchill Island, a scenic and historically rich destination just off the coast of Phillip Island. With your entry ticket, explore one of Victoria’s earliest European settlements, featuring a working heritage farm, charming cottages, and sweeping coastal views.

Explore a living piece of history

Wander the walking trails and watch daily heritage farming activities like sheep shearing, cow milking, and blacksmithing. Visit the restored 19th-century homestead and original cottages, beautifully furnished with period antiques. From historic machinery to idyllic landscapes, this self-guided visit offers a relaxing and educational experience for all ages.

Upgrade to the 3 Parks Pass

Enhance your visit with the 3 Parks Pass, which includes entry to these additional Phillip Island Nature Parks attractions:

• Penguin Parade: Witness the world-famous Penguin Parade from the general viewing platform as hundreds of little penguins waddle ashore at dusk.

• Koala Conservation Reserve: Stroll treetop boardwalks and spot koalas in their natural habitat while learning about conservation efforts to protect Australia's beloved marsupials.

Penguin Parade upgrades

• Penguins Plus: Upgrade your Penguin Parade experience with access to the limited-capacity Penguins Plus viewing platform. Located along the most active penguin pathway, it offers the closest and most immersive view of the nightly parade from a secluded beachfront stand.

• Underground viewing: For an all-weather experience, choose the underground viewing option. Watch the penguins at eye level through large, ground-level windows as they cross just inches from your point of view—ideal for photographers and wildlife lovers.

Whether you stick to Churchill Island or opt for the full 3 Parks experience, this is a wonderful journey into the heart of Victoria’s natural and cultural heritage.
