Griffiths Island, with its colony of shearwater seabirds, winding pathways and the spectacular lighthouse at the eastern tip, is a great place to explore.
A short walk along the causeway from Martin's Point gets you onto the island. Dogs are not allowed on the island and visitors are urged to stick to the walking tracks, which wind through the low lying scrub. Nesting birds, including the shearwater's that migrate from the northern hemisphere each year, create burrows for their young hidden in the sand and it's important these nests aren't disturbed by wandering sightseers.

From the sandy dunes of Logan’s Beach, you have the perfect vantage point for spotting the whales. This is where Victoria’s Southern Right Whale nursery is located, so you have a high chance of seeing these huge creatures as they begin their migration.
From the beach, you can easily come within 100-metres of the mammals, as they frolic around the shoreline, but there is also a specially constructed viewing platform that offers incredible views across the ocean and out into the nursery, and there are number of tools rangers in the area use to keep you up to date with the arrival and daily movements of the resident whales.
