Set up as a shrine to Australian surfing, this multimedia surf museum begins with an audiovisual tribute to legendary Aussie surfers, before leading into a wraparound cinema that simulates catching a wave. The last room features memorabilia, including comp boards and signed and mounted rashies from Aussie female world champions.
It's part of the Rip Curl Phillip Island surf store, which also rents out boards.
