Details

Curated selection of points

Victoria’s oldest national park has pristine beaches, carefully preserved forests and a range of accommodation options.

If you’re lucky enough to secure yourself a stay at ‘the Prom’ (school holidays are balloted a year in advance…), Hannah Foster has you covered with the top ten things to do at this much-loved piece of hiking and holidaying heaven.

Expand
1
Walk to historic Sealers Cove
This 19-kilometre (return) walk can be accomplished in a day.

2
Overnight lighthouse stay
Wilsons Promontory Lightstation is super remote, accessible only by sea or a day-long hike from Tidal River or Telegraph Saddle car park.

3
Glamping luxury at Tidal River
These safari-style large permanent tents are situated in a quiet part of Tidal River.

4
See black swans and the world’s southern-most mangroves
The northern part of the Prom doesn’t get nearly as many visitors.

5
Refuge Cove
An abundance of wildlife calls Refuge Cove its home, with waters in the region that supports dolphins, sharks, seals and migrating whales.

6
Eat hot chips on Norman Bay beach
Why? Because it’s hot chips. On the beach.

7
Wildlife spotting, Loo Errn Boardwalk track
Spotting native animals out in the wild never gets tiring.

8
Watch the sun set from the top of Mt Oberon
The hike up this mountain is worth it for the view at any time of day.

9
Attend a ranger talk at the Visitor Centre
Parks Victoria offers a great schedule of academic speakers and kids activities.

10
Take a cruise around the Prom’s coastline
Much of the water around the Prom is a marine national park.
