Warnambool VIC

Upon arrival in Warrnambool we settled into the BIG4 Discovery Holiday Park, which turned out to be a great base for exploring the area.

One of the highlights was visiting Middle Island, made famous by the movie Oddball and the fantastic Mareema Project, where Maremma dogs were used to protect the local little penguin colony. A great initiative.
