Introduction of Penguin Parade

Philip Island (Phillip Island) is about 140 kilometers from the Victoria state capital Melbourne downtown, the island is most famous for these lovely wild penguins, so Philip Island is also known as Penguin Island.

Philip Island is currently the world's largest wild penguin protected base, with more than 30,000 Australian and New Zealand-only small blue penguins perched on the island, with a sightseeing area to allow visitors to watch the small blue penguins homing at night, attracting more than half a million visitors a year to watch these lovely little ones, can give visitors an unprecedented unique experience.

Phillip Island penguins are small blue penguins, the scientific name is Eudyptula minor, the world's smallest penguins, and other common penguins, their feathers are blue. Little blue penguins only grow in Australia and New Zealand, usually only at night, gentle and timid, like to nest in the sand dunes near the coast, day and night out, go out to sea during the day to find food, wait for dark before returning to the nest. For thousands of years these lovely little guys have followed a fixed route back to their homes, because of the fear of lights scare these timid guys, Philip Island beach night will be light control, the length of more than a thousand meters of sea stalls only in the sightseeing area has a few light bulbs.

Attention: civilized travel, do not touch penguins, do not take pictures and video; in addition, Australia's morning and evening temperature difference is very big, usually very cold at night, especially in autumn and winter, pay attention to bring more clothes to prevent colds or affected by the temperature of the play experience.
