Last Minute Travel Tips

As with any holiday, there are a number of travel tips that you can follow to make you holiday more successful and exciting. Follow these simple tips and ensure that your holiday on Phillips Island is a smashing success:

·         Avoid travelling to Phillip Island during the wettest seasons in July and August, as the weather may well play spoilsport and keep you from engaging in all the activities that you would like to.

·         Respect the island! Do not litter the areas that you visit and do not disturb the wildlife and plants.

·         Don’t forget to carry some form of acceptable identification. You never know where you may end up going and when you may need it.

·         Always remember to take great care when exploring the island’s lesser developed areas. Many of them have rough terrain and dangerous sea fronts that lash powerful waves on the rocks. You may put yourself in danger by exploring these areas unsupervised or alone.

·         Start your vacation a day before you are supposed to leave. This simple yet effective measure will allow you to have time to finish all of the little miscellaneous items that you may have to do before you leave. It will also ensure that you are not in some sort of maddening rush to finish work and get out of the office,

·         If you need to do any shopping before you go on your trip, make sure you do it well in advance. Leaving shopping for miscellaneous items such as toiletries to the last minute is a recipe for disaster.

·         Make a list of all the things that you need to carry as well as what you need to do. This will ensure that you do not forget anything and spend your holiday stressing about it. People flying out of the country have been known to forget their passports at home so there is no item too small to include on a checklist.

·         Get to the airport well in time. This is something that most people know that they should do, but never end up doing! The faster you get to the airport, the more stress you avoid waiting in long queues. Being agitated and waiting in a long line is no way to start your holiday and sets a bad precedent.

·         Take some time to relax and be by yourself. Even in the airport, having a few moments of alone time can have a big influence on your demeanour. This will also allow you to maintain a positive attitude throughout and ensure that you do not unintentionally snap at the friends or family members that are accompanying you on holiday.
