FRENCH ISLAND

Located just over one hour from Melbourne and a 15 minute ferry ride from the Mornington Peninsula and Phillip Island, French Island is a destination for nature lovers, cyclists, hikers and campers. This pristine, off grid, eco island is pretty large (some 17,000+ hectares) and is home to one of the country’s largest Koala population. Forests, mangroves, volcanic coastline, spring wildflowers and plenty of wildlife are the backdrop to the peace and tranquility the island has to offer. There is a general store & cafe, winery and a free campground.

FIG’s Cafe operate a courtesy bus from Tankerton Jetty (where the ferry berths) by arrangement, and also bike hire. For more information contact FIGS Cafe 5980 1209.
