Not only is Cape Woolamai a world renowned surf beach, it also boasts the Cape Woolamai State Faunal Reserve with walking tracks out to the headland. Each spring the Short-tailed Shearwaters arrive on their summer breeding pilgrimage. Over 350,000 burrows are to be found on the tip of Cape Woolamai. This is the largest shearwater colony on Phillip Island and one of the largest in south eastern Australia. It is quite a spectacle at dusk each day between approx. September to April, to watch the shearwaters fly home to their burrows after a day of fishing at sea. The Woolamai Surf beach is also great for just a walk along the golden sands, taking in the peace and quiet and sea views. It is often almost deserted outside peak holiday times.

Picturesque walks around the cape. Get the tide times right if you're looking to do a full loop.
