Name: Coastal Retreat By The Beach
Address: Cowes

Beachcombing is a relaxing activity the entire family can get into. So, why not take the youngsters to Cowes Beach to see what you can spot washed up on the seashore?

This stretch of coastline is on the to-do lists of many travelers to Victoria. But Cowes Beach isn't the only drawcard here. Penguin Parade, Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit, and Phillip Island Wildlife Park are some other worthwhile sights nearby.
