Within the same day, from Twelve Apostles, we went to Philip Island. 5 hours drive!! I admit it's kind of wrong planning. Anyway, it's paid off by its beauty! 








There are plenty of burrow boxes for the little penguins at The Nobbies. Those burrows serve as home, place to rest, nest, moult and avoid predators.





Rented Suzuki Swift from Hertz, this small little car is indeed fuel efficient.. 


 Penguin Plus will give you a closer look of the little penguins when they returning home from the ocean.

This photo is taken from Visit Phillip Island website as NO Photography is allowed during the penguin parade. Why? Because some people will tend to forget to turn off their camera flash and the flash will scare the little penguins and make them afraid to come back to their burrows.
