Only an hour from the hustle and bustle of Melbourne, French Island represents an era long gone. Since the closure of the gaol some 20 years ago, very little development has taken place. A good two thirds of the island is National Park and you will have the opportunity to talk with one of the rangers. You will be shown over the Island by a guide with great character, in a bus that has seen better times. You will see lots of Koalas in their natural environment, you will see many wildflowers, water birds and lots more, before returning to the mainland.
French Island is indeed an experience.
