Overview

Rhyll is a small fishing town perched on the north‑east corner of Phillip Island, Victoria, with a 2021 census population of 836. Its oceanic climate, tempered by the surrounding sea, delivers mild, dry‑spelled summers and cool, moderately wet winters that stay within about 11 °C of the summer highs. The mangrove boardwalk along Rhyll Inlet provides a tranquil haven for pelicans, black swans, gulls and straw‑necked ibises, underscoring the town’s relaxed, nature‑focused lifestyle.

The centre of town is anchored by a post office that doubles as a general store and mail‑collection point, while a three‑lane, 24‑hour boat ramp and nearby boat service centre support both fishing and recreational boating. The all‑tide ramp is equipped with barbecues, two playgrounds, tennis courts and public toilets. Accommodation ranges from several bed‑and‑breakfasts to a full dining scene, including a tavern, restaurant, breakfast café, take‑away options and a fish‑and‑chip shop, offering a varied housing mix for residents and visitors alike.
