The sandy track winding along the sheer cliff tops on Phillip Island's southerly point culminates in a superb panorama of the Island. Watch out for the daring surfers on nearby Woolamai Surf Beach, and keep an eye open for the burrows of the Cape's short-tailed shearwaters (mutton birds), small migratory birds that fly to Alaska each April.
