Really nice, chill walk out to Pinnacles Lookout. The views are beautiful and the rock formations are super cool. We even spotted a couple of echidnas and a snake along the way, which made it feel a bit more like an adventure. The track gets a lot easier once you’re off the beach and onto the main path too. Just a really enjoyable walk overall, nothing too hectic and heaps to take in. Definitely worth checking out.

I recently visited Pinnacles Lookout and it was absolutely worth the trip—especially during autumn. The walk from Surf Beach car park to the lookout takes about 30 minutes and is relatively easy to follow. The route starts along the beach, so wearing slippers is perfectly fine as the sand can be a bit wet. As you continue, you’ll eventually reach a flight of stairs that leads up to the lookout point. The scenery along the way is already stunning, but the highlight is definitely the dramatic coastal views at the top. We were lucky enough to spot a few wild kangaroos along the trail, which made the experience even more special. If you’re visiting in autumn, I’d recommend bringing a light jacket as it can get breezy, along with a hat and sunglasses for sun protection. Overall, it’s a scenic and relaxing walk with rewarding views—perfect for nature lovers and anyone looking for a peaceful outdoor experience.

Good view and enjoyable trails. Need to brings repellent or hat at least because a lot of flies, it’s literally a lot (maybe only in summer times?)

It's not too far to walk here from the Cape Woolamai Surf Beach carpark. Lovely views from the cliffs. We saw a hawk today. The Pinnacles is quite a sight. Small but a great reminder of the interplay of wave action and erosion on the rocks and landscape here.

Pinnacles Lookout Cruise Experience – A Hidden Gem! We recently did a short one-hour cruise to see the Pinnacles from the water, and it was absolutely Stunning! The towering granite cliffs looked even more dramatic from the ocean, with waves crashing against them and seabirds soaring overhead. It felt like we were cruising past paradise. The ride itself was smooth, relaxing, and full of photo-worthy moments. The crew was friendly and shared some great insights about the coastline and wildlife. They gave the most divine slice of orange cake. We even spotted a seal playing around in the water. If you’re visiting Phillip Island and want a unique perspective of the Pinnacles without the hike, this cruise is 100% worth it. A perfect mix of adventure and serenity, highly recommend!
