Description

Start your journey at Brighton Beach, famous for its colorful rainbow huts (this stop may be substituted with a visit to Cowes depending on the day’s schedule). You might have the opportunity to catch a glimpse of the iconic Puffing Billy Train, subject to the day's timetable. We may also visit the Maru Koala and Animal Park for intimate encounters with Australia’s unique wildlife (this is an optional activity at an additional cost, also based on the schedule). Next, head to The Nobbies Viewpoint to enjoy stunning coastal vistas from the observation platform. Take some free time to relax in Cowes, depending on the day’s itinerary. Dinner will be available at either the Nobbies Center or in Cowes (meal expenses are not included). As the day comes to a close, be enchanted by the sight of little penguins returning from the ocean, waddling across the beach to their nests.
