Wild coastlines, native wildlife, local flavours and the famous Penguin Parade are all part of a Phillip Island escape. With so much to experience across the island, sometimes the best way to see it is to let a local lead the way.

Calling all bird watchers 👀🦆

This time of year on Phillip Island is marked by an extraordinary wildlife event - the departure of the Short-tailed Shearwater fledglings on their very first migration.

Watching thousands of birds lift off at sunset from Cape Woolamai is a truly unforgettable sight.

Because the fledglings are drawn to light, everyone can help by turning off outdoor lights at night and driving slowly and carefully on island roads - Dark Sky So Shearwaters Fly - Phillip Island Nature Parks

Our Story...

After an eight-month fight, we lost Karen - my wife and Marks's sister - to cancer in 2022.

Karen was a passionate traveller, adventurer and educator. Her mantra, Family, Adventure, Life, is with us every day. We know she would love that Mark and I are taking on the 2026 Winter Sh*tbox Rally togther in her memory.

We'll be hitting the road in our $1500-or-less Sh*tbox, driving from Mildura to Townsville on an unforgettable seven - day adventure. It's not just about the drive - its about helping make a differnece in the fight against cancer.
