Phillips Island and Gippsland
The Gippsland region is an attractive day trip getaway from the
city of Melbourne with its lakes, forest, dramatic coastline and
historic townships. It is also gourmet country, filled with
cheese-makers, wineries, fruit farms and markets. Phillip Island,
just offshore, offers the chance to learn and experience being up
close and personal with a variety of wildlife, from fairy penguins
to fur seals and koala bears. The island also has several
outstanding dive sites, and is surrounded by some of the best
surfing and swimming beaches in Victoria.

Money
The Australian Dollar (AUD) is divided into 100 cents. Banks and
bureaux de change exchange most foreign currencies. Travellers
cheques are also welcome everywhere, but banks take a small
commission and it is better to take cheques in major currencies
(e.g. US dollars or Euros) to avoid additional charges. Credit
cards are widely accepted and ATMs are freely available throughout
the country. Banking hours are generally 9.30am to 4pm Monday to
Thursday, and 9.30am to 5pm on Friday, but some banks offer
extended hours and some are open on Saturday mornings.
