As I travel the world I take many photos that pique my interest. During the year April 2025 to March 2026 our travels included visits to many islands large and small. My theme for 2026 Island Hopping will give precedence to Islands visited in the past year but for those difficult letters like X and Z I will dig into my photo archives for content.
"Churchill Island is a 50.7-hectare island in Western Port, Victoria, Australia. The island is named after John Churchill, Esquire of Dawlish. The island is linked to Phillip Island by a bridge, with Phillip Island itself connected to the mainland via another bridge." WikipediaWe visited Churchill Island as part of a tour on neighbouring Phillip Island from the Regent Seven Seas Explorer. IMHO this visit should have been missed and the time added to our explorations on Phillip Island.
The main attractions on Churchill appear to be a farm, farmhouse and kiosk, a few cattle and some pleasant views across the sea.

Thankfully our next stop at a Wildlife Refuge on Phillip Island was more interesting and informative.
Other C islands we have visited include Cabo Verde, Canary Islands, Capri, Castaway Fiji, Cayman Islands, Cephalonia, Cockatoo, Coco, Corfu, Crete Cuba and Curaçao
