It was named by George Bass in late 1790\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s, who found that the shape of the headland resembles the snapper\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s head. The word \u00e2\u20ac\u0153wollamai\u00e2\u20ac\u009d means snapper fish in aboriginal language.<\/p>\n<p>The headland lies within the borders of the Cape Woolamai State Faunal Reserve which is an important breeding place for short-tailed shearwaters also known as Australian muttonbirds.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yktravelphoto.com\/pi\/1506\/cape-woolamai-phillip-island-victoria-australia\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2142\" title=\"Cape Woolamai, Phillip Island, Victoria, Australia\"  itemprop=\"image\" src=\"\/places\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/PLACES-AU-VIC-CAPEWOOLAMAI-20120407-01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"367\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Pinnacles, the most interesting spot, are on the western tip of the cape and can be reached from the Woolamai Beach car park in 30-40 minutes. While there is a walking track that begins right at the car park, I would recommend going along the beach (10-15 minutes) until you get to the wooden stairs which bring you up to the main track &#8211; it is ten minutes faster and much-much easier.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yktravelphoto.com\/pi\/1512\/cape-woolamai-phillip-island-victoria-australia\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2148\" title=\"Cape Woolamai, Phillip Island, Victoria, Australia\"  itemprop=\"image\" src=\"\/places\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/PLACES-AU-VIC-CAPEWOOLAMAI-20120408-04.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"450\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I love shooting seascapes and I honestly doubt that I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll ever get tired of it.
