Cape Woolamai

Catch a wave against the backdrop of ancient pink granite at Cape Woolamai, Phillip Island's highest point and one of Victoria's most popular surfing beaches.

Woolamai on foot
Walk along the golden sweeping beaches at any time of the year. Follow one of the four coastal walking track loops at Cape Woolamai and stop at viewing platforms to take in breathtaking scenery, including the Pinnacles and the Cape Woolamai Lighthouse.

Wildlife wonders
Witness the magical dusk descent of the short-tailed shearwaters (mutton birds) as they return from a day of fishing to the place they call home between late September and mid-April.

Beach life
Take advantage of the wildness of Bass Strait and surf one of the best beach breaks in the country.

Rewind the calendar and enjoy holidays like they used to be. Base yourself in Newhaven, hire bikes to enjoy the leisurely cycle from the tourist road down to the beach and let the kids swim in the patrolled waters.
