The lovely original homestead has been restored and transformed into a wonderful cafe. Walk along the beach walking track (from Norsemans Rd, Coronet Bay) towards Corinella, approximately 1.5 kms, until you hit the Fig & The Bay or you can take the short drive to Corinella.

Ask the Coronet Bay locals and this place can be a tad "hit or miss". We personally have always had great pizzas from there... so if that's what you're craving, and you're keen to support local, don't hesitate to give them a call and order your favourite combinations. I'm also happy to hear your thoughts on whether you personally thought it was good or needed improvement??

San Remo IGA is a good little supermarket / liquor store. Just remember on long weekends or if there is an event on Phillip Island it can take a lot longer to get to this supermarket from Coronet Bay due to the build up of traffic. In those circumstances Wonthaggi is a better option for grocery shopping.

A lovely experience to see the adorable penguins arrive on the beach at dusk to then find there burrows. Although no photos are allowed to be taken at this experience, it is great to get so close to these gorgeous creatures. Make sure you book early in busy holiday periods to avoid disappointment.

A stunning natural formation created by the power of the waves, best viewed at low tide so make sure you search up high and low tide times for the day you plan on visiting. You can go there at any time, but you can only see the cave fully when the tide is lowest. You can climb on top of the rock formation and this makes for stunning photographs. Once you park at the base of the sand dunes there is a short 100 metre walk up and down stairs onto the beach (there is no accessibility for wheelchairs). Once on the beach turn left and walk 300 metres to the caves. There are plenty of rock pools for the kids and plenty of rock hopping for the older kids (dads). The beach is not patrolled and extremely rough. There are areas that you can get your feet wet but it is not a swimming beach.

Arts & Culture

Step back in time to experience life on an 1860’s working farm. Spend an activity-filled day with the family exploring historic buildings full of olden-day memorabilia which have been fully restored and are all open to the public. Take part in hands-on farming demonstrations, watch working animal shows and fill hungry tummies in the café. Coastline walks offer magnificent views of Phillip Island and Western Port.
