The Pinnacles

From a photographic perspective, there are a few places that would pique any photographers’ interest in Phillip Island. Out of these, in my view, The Pinnacles is definitely the most interesting and beautiful location in Phillip Island to photograph. I might even go as far as saying that it’s one of the most beautiful locations in Victoria overall.

The first time I went there was during a casual visit to Phillip Island, so I wasn’t fully prepared to take full advantage of the photographic opportunities available at this location. You can capture some really beautiful views from the viewing platform along the walking track. But, if you want to capture some truly breathtaking views, you have to take a few rough steps and go down to the beach. So, I came back that first time thinking that I need to come back better prepared.

Pinnacles Lookout

It’s a relatively easy walk from the car park to the Pinnacles Lookout, that would take about 30 to 40 minutes. Along the walk you can enjoy beautiful views of the coastline as well as some concessional life. Once at the lookout, it is a truly breathtaking view of the rocky formations below. Would look even better later in the afternoon with the sunset.
