About Phillip Island Go Karts
Phillip Island Go Karts on Back Beach Road offers a proper racing experience with detailed safety briefings and provided neck supports for younger drivers. Lap times are recorded and briefly displayed after the race, with the venue promising email results though visitors often don't receive them. The track is well-maintained and the karts are in good condition. Sessions are relatively short, with ten minutes being the standard, though a longer thirty-minute option is available. One family of six tried tandems with their five, nine, and twelve-year-old, and found the heavy steering and noise level were genuinely interesting rather than problems. Staff provide shoes if you don't have suitable footwear, along with new socks to take home. Expect some delays; one visitor's 2:15 PM slot didn't start until 2:45 PM. The views are lovely, and watching the motorcycles racing between sessions adds to the atmosphere. It's a memorable experience, especially for families.

Such a fun experience for all ages. We were a family of 6 so we went in the tandems, we had a 5yr, 9yr and 12yr old. Safety was very thorough, they provided neck supports to for the kids. Staff were friendly and helpful. We only did 10 minutes which I originally thought wasn’t very long however it was enough for our family. It is noisy, and the steering is heavy so if it’s your first time I would say 10 mins was perfect. Without kids I may have enjoyed 20 mins. It was also fun to watch the motor cycles racing round. Definitely a memorable experience. Also loved how they email you your race times at the end.

The tracks are very well maintained, and the karts are in good condition as well. Helmets and balaclavas are provided. Shoes are mandatory; if you don’t have suitable footwear, you can pay extra and they will provide temporary shoes along with a new pair of socks. You can take the socks with you after the race. A detailed safety briefing is given before the session. However, expect some delays. Our slot was booked for 2:15 PM, we were asked to report by 1:45 PM, and the race actually started at 2:45 PM. Lap times are recorded and briefly displayed on a screen outside after the race. They mention that results will be emailed, but in most cases, you may not receive them. Recommendation: Don’t hesitate to book the 30-minute session instead of the 10-minute single round—you’ll enjoy it much more.

We visited the Phillip Island Go Kart circuit with our group of nine, including several teenagers eager to try out the track. While a friend’s wife and I chose to watch, the rest of the group had a fantastic time racing. The circuit offers stunning views and feels very safe, with well-maintained facilities and clear safety measures in place. The pricing was reasonable, especially considering the quality of the experience and the time we spent there—nearly three hours in total. Everyone enjoyed themselves, and it was a memorable outing for both the kids and adults. Highly recommended for families or groups looking for a fun and scenic activity on Phillip Island!

I had a great time on the track. It was my daughter’s first go on their own (15&18) which they both really enjoyed. Very professional on track information brought to our attention for a safe experience. We went on a family course.
