Our exploration continues on the scenic unpaved Boulevard Drive, which runs alongside the Southern Ocean, offering stunning views. The western tip of Phillip Island presents a dramatic scene of rugged cliffs beside crashing waves and open grasslands swept by the wind. Take a leisurely walk along the boardwalk at Nobbies Lookout while enjoying the stunning sea views. This windswept headland presents an ideal opportunity to breathe in the salty air while capturing photos of the wild coastline and experiencing its raw beauty.
