Naturally Playful, Naturally Spring
Wildlife on the move, landscapes in colour and longer days made for exploring. This is spring on Phillip Island.
Spring brings a fresh rhythm to Phillip Island. Across the island, native wildflowers add colour to coastal trails, green landscapes stretch towards the sea and longer days invite more time outdoors.
It’s a season made for getting out and experiencing more. Walk the coast, explore by bike, take to the water, stop for lunch somewhere local or simply find a quiet stretch of beach and see where the day takes you.
Stay Beachsafe This Summer
As the weather begins to warm up, it is important to make sure you know how to keep yourself, others and our wildlife safe while exploring our beautiful beaches and coastlines.
- Swim at patrolled beaches whenever possible.
- Keep cool, stay hydrated and plan ahead on hot days.
- Stay clear of cliff edges and the base of coastal cliffs.
- Stick to designated paths and boardwalks, and respect signed wildlife refuges.
- Slow down when driving at dawn, dusk and at night, when wildlife is most active.
