About Pelican feeding at 12 noon

Since 1985, the Fisherman's Co-operative has fed Australian pelicans daily at noon in San Remo, near Kilcunda on Phillip Island. Up to 35 giant sea birds gather at the water's edge waiting for fresh fish scraps, with volunteers explaining pelican habits, biology, and conservation. This free daily event offers visitors an intimate encounter with Australia's iconic pelicans and has become a popular tourist attraction in the region.

A very unique experience I would definitely stop here anytime I drive to Philip Island. We were blessed with a huge flock of pelicans and a small crowd. It was thrilling to see them, bigger than your toddler. This is a nice stop over on route. But need to reach on time. the experience lasts for hardly 30 mins so if you snooze you lose. Theres also the pier and the stone shore nearby and a short walking trail through the bush. They say we could spot giant sting rays but we didn't. There are so many food places nearby.

A wonderful experience at San Remo! The pelican feeding was definitely the highlight of our visit. Watching the pelicans gather at the jetty and seeing them fed up close was fascinating, especially for families and first-time visitors. The atmosphere was relaxing, with beautiful coastal views, fresh sea air, and plenty of places to walk around and enjoy the scenery. The volunteers were informative and passionate, making the experience even more enjoyable. If you’re visiting Phillip Island or the surrounding area, I highly recommend stopping by San Remo to catch the pelican feeding. It’s a unique and memorable attraction that doesn’t cost a thing!

I am so glad to have found this place on Google and brought my kids there. The pelicans knew what time was feeding, and were already waiting before 12pm. The real fun comes with each throw of the fish.. cos they would really fight each other for it. We went for lunch after that at one of the cafes along the stretch opposite the wharf, which is a nice place to spend your midday. Highly recommended for anyone to visit, especially if you have kids.

Really enjoyable pelican feeding experience. Watching the pelicans up close was unique and relaxing, especially seeing how they gather and interact during feeding time. It’s simple but memorable, great for a casual outing and perfect for anyone who enjoys wildlife and nature.

San Remo Pelican Feeding just before Phillip Island is one of those simple, feel-good experiences that totally delivers. There’s something pretty special about standing right by the water and watching these massive, prehistoric-looking pelicans glide in like they own the place (because, honestly, they do). The feeding session is relaxed and family-friendly, with knowledgeable staff sharing interesting facts about the pelicans and the local marine life. It’s not overproduced or touristy in a bad wayβ€”just authentic, educational, and genuinely enjoyable. You’re close enough to really appreciate the birds, but it still feels respectful and well managed. Best of all, it’s free, which makes it an easy must-do if you’re in the area. Whether you’re travelling with kids, into wildlife photography, or just want a uniquely Aussie coastal experience, this is well worth stopping for. Short, sweet, and memorable.
