Wilsons Promontory National Park Overnighter | Victoria Australia Travel Is it possible to experience the best of Wilsons Prom (The Prom) in just 24 hours? We hooked up our T-van camper trailer for a quick Melbourne weekend getaway to find out! As we continue travelling Australia in retirement, we’re finding that sometimes the shortest Victoria road trips are the most rewarding. In this Wilsons Promontory travel guide, we cover everything you need for a perfect one night camping trip at the famous Tidal River camping ground. From the southern tip of South Gippsland to the "singing sands" of the coast, Wilsons Promontory National Park offers some of the best views in Victoria. What we explored in this video: Hiking Victoria’s Best Trails: We tackle the Mount Oberon hike for those iconic 360-degree views over Norman Bay, Picnic Bay, and Whisky Bay. Iconic Coastal Walks: A visit to Squeaky Beach to hear the famous acoustic sand and explore the granite boulders. Hidden Gems: After 40 years of visiting, we finally discovered The Big Drift sand dunes—an incredible desert-like landscape near the park entrance. Australian Wildlife Encounters: Spotting Wombats at Tidal River, plus Kangaroos and Emus along the main park tracks. Local History: A quick stop at the historic Yankee Station Cemetery. 00:00 - Can you see Wilsons Promontory in Just 1 Night 00:48 - Why May is the perfect time to visit Wilsons Promontory 01:56 - Wildlife spotting: Emus and Kangaroos 04:44 - Squeaky Beach: Hearing the sand sing 06:10 - Night walk: Spotting Wombats at Tidal River 08:18 - Hiking Mount Oberon for 360-degree views 09:42 - Is this the best view in Victoria? 10:43 - The Big Drift: Sahara-style sand dunes 12:46 - Yankee Station Cemetery: A bit of local history 13:07 - Final verdict: Is a 1 night trip worth it? #Wilsonsprom #visitvictoria #campingaustralia #retirementtravel #thisretiredlife 👍 Don’t forget to like & subscribe to This Retired Life for more travel, road trips and easy adventures around Australia.
