HOT: Antarctic Journey, The Nobbies Centre, Phillip Island

Have you ever wanted to pat a seal, play with a whale or frolic with a penguin? Then don’t miss Phillip Island’s Nobbies Antarctic Journey, the world’s first interactive Antarctic experience in partnership with WWF-Australia at The Nobbies Centre.

The museum has three educational levels to explore. Even little kids like Baby 2.0 can get involved with the interactive displays and multimedia technology, all used to enhance the information about the world of the Southern Ocean and the Antarctic.

  • Save money by bundling your ticket with a visit to the Penguin Parade, Churchill Island Koala Conservation Centre or buy discount tickets to just Nobbies Antarctic Journey;
  • The museum is easy to navigate with a pram, with lots of ramps.
  • Displays are interactive but still text-heavy so most suitable for kids 5+ years;
  • There is free entry to the boardwalks, cafe and gift shop, as well as the interpretive display on penguin conservation on Phillip Island at the entrance to the Antarctic Journey attraction; and
  • free parking on site.
