What to expect

Come aboard a two-hour wildlife cruise off the rugged coast of Phillip Island and encounter thousands of seals at Australia's largest fur seal colony, Seal Rocks! Be enthralled at the sight and sound of 5,000+ fur seals close up as your boat drifts in the shelter of Bass Strait. Watch the seals lounging on the rocks and swimming in the bays, or take photos of them basking in the sun or popping their heads out of the water near your boat. While admiring the adorable creatures in their natural environment, take in the fascinating scenic coastline of the island. Capture images of the waves breaking in the mouth of the famous Nobbies Cave and the island's flora and fauna. After spending some time with seals, begin your relaxed journey back to shore as you indulge in the complimentary tea or coffee!
