User's notes

Phillip Island, The Nobbies: Very large rock shelves, high hills of Samphire and other salt tolerant plants, large penguin colony and breeding grounds for many shore birds and hunting ground for raptors. Offshore is the Seal Rocks seal colony which attracts large sharks. Whales at times in season.
