Phillip Island: tourist information
Cowes, the main settlement of Phillip Island, is a bustling hub of cultural, artistic and recreational life. Originally named ‘Mussel Rocks’, Cowes was the main point of arrival from the mainland by ferry before the bridge linking San Remo and Newhaven was opened. Early visitors arrived by steamboat, stayed in one of the many grand guesthouses along the seafront and travelled around the island on horseback to enjoy the many natural wonders and attractions on offer.
As you expect in a town of its size, a variety of accommodation is available, complimented by a wealth of restaurants, shops and nearby attractions, Cowes also has boat-launching facilities and a jetty that services the ferry to Stony Point, various cruise vessels and amateur anglers. Cowes has beautiful beaches with fine sand that face north onto Western Port, and has views of French Island and the Mornington Peninsula. The War Memorial Gardens are in front of the RSL (Returned and Services League) club and the Museum at the Heritage Centre in Thompson Avenue has a large display of historical information and artefacts.
In town you’ll find art exhibitions, craft and souvenir.
