Are there any eco-friendly holiday experiences in Victoria?

Question

We love to holiday but we are very environmentally conscious too so we like to ensure our holidays are kind to the environment. Do you know of accommodation providers, attractions and activities that are kind to the environment that we could visit?

Answer 1

This place near Phillip Island is just amazing, check it out:

While you at the island, check out the scenery, the penguin parade and just relax. Very good place to go, I love it.

Answer 2

walhalla is fairly conscious of the enviroment considering it only got electricity in the '80's

it is really stunning and the only pollution you will have to make is the transport getting there but it has a lot of things to see and it is in rather lush bush and its very hilly! great for walking. look it up on the net for more info but i'd highly recommend it!

Answer 3

Nudist beaches are good for the environment.

Answer 4

I hope this list helps you find a suitable eco-friendly holiday experience
