    San Remo

    We will first arrive at the seaside town of San Remo. This is a coastal town located in the Gippsland region of southern Victoria, west of the Anderson Peninsula. It is a must visit destination to the famous Phillip Island, also known as Penguin Island. The only bridge connecting Phillip Island to mainland Victoria is here. San Remo is famous for a group of pelicans (also known as pelicans, a large water bird known for their huge beaks) living here. Every day at noon, local fishermen go to the town's San Remo Jetty to provide food for the pelicans. The feeding show lasts for about half an hour and visitors can visit for free. We will rest here and enjoy lunch (lunch to be taken care of by ourselves)
