Stopped here by coincidence after going to kitty miller bay, Past the GP track. Saw the cafe sign and stopped on the way home. Relaxed and cool vibe. Staff provided excellent customer service and the coffee and food was great. Quiet farm cafe scene looking over r paddocks. Permaculture farm with healthy food. Lots of room for kids to play. They had little games outside and a few farm animals around like the horse. Lovely sunny day it was awesome to relax and listen to the music. Well worth the visit and will definitely go again.

We arrived on speculation, without any bookings and were surprised to find we could commence a tour, after a tasty lunch. The staff could not have been more helpful, particularly Kipp, a young personable student on a vacation job, who was knowledgeable and friendly. The museum, included in the tour price, was small but interesting and the shop was well stocked. The guided tour was comprehensive and took in all areas behind scenes and the added extra was that bikes were racing round as part of a private hire day. Perfect day not to be missed.

Set on the south coast of Phillip Island, this inviting property is open 5 days a week for lunches and afternoon grazing options using the best local produce. The grounds are stunning yet simple, offering expansive lawns, rolling rural views and glimpses of the glittering turquoise water of Bass Straight. The cellar door offers wine-tasting and retail wine and cider sales. The venue offers weekend live music, fun workshops and Premium wine and dining experiences. Guests can wander through “The Yards” where an on-site floral stylist and quality gift shop offers an opportunity to take home a souvenir. The winery regularly hosts weddings and events plus premium evening wine dinners, and the new owners plan to extend the vineyard and build a purpose-built event space for future bookings.

We had a beautiful afternoon celebrating my 30th birthday. The staff were beautiful, friendly, easy going and attentive. They over to chat and make you feel welcome. The food was great- fresh, simple and tasty. The wine tasting is great, affordable and the knowledge of the staff briefing you of the wine’s background and pairings was great. I loved the sparkling, Chardonnay and moscato (I don’t like moscato but you have to try this one!) Even though the wines are not grown on the property (yet!) you are still supporting and tasting Victorian vineyards produce. We have a 7 month old, the staff (and other diners!) dotted over her but were supportive and made us feel very welcome. Loved the whole experience, they made my day very special and delightful. Highly, highly recommend.

Pyramid Rock rises up out of the Bass Straight. This place is wild and beautiful with the amazing waves crashing against the rock. Best time to visit is sunrise or sunset but still worth a visit. There is ample car parking, and two viewing platforms, and one that is wheelchair accessible. If you go just before dusk you may see some Swamp Wallabies hopping around.

6. SS Speke Shipwreck

Parking at Kitty Miller beach, go down the stairs and turn left. Walk along the beach and rocks for 100 metre and you will see a steep track on your left. Head up this track then follow it around for around 600 metres and you will find the SS Speke Shipwreck. There is a very steep slippery path down to the shipwreck. Well worth the effort to get down there. Have a look at the information sign st the base of the walk to gather s true feeling of how big this ship was. Great but oh history and just general amazement. Walk can be done in thongs however recommended to do in shoes Low tide is the best time to see all the parts of the ship. High tide you will only see the top portion Definitely not suitable for ederley, frail or wheelchairs. No toilets at this site. Refer to photos posted to see access tracks. Highly recommended
