Philip Island is an exciting Victoria destination about 90 miles from Melbourne. After driving through San Remo and over a 2,100 foot bridge spanning The Narrows, you arrive in Newhaven, one of about a dozen small towns. Although the island is only 40 square miles, there is a lot to see and enjoy. Let the knowledgeable folks at the Phillip Island Visitor Information Centre help plan your itinerary. Also notice these statues. They are victors of the MotoGP Australian Grand Prix. On the left is Mick Doohan. He was the world champion five years in a row. This annual event is held nearby at a coastal track famous among professional motorcyclists and their fans.
