How long should I spend at Wilsons Prom?

We would personally recommend at least a few days to a week at Wilsons Promontory. We were only there for a few nights and unfortunately, we had a bit of rain so only got to explore one side of the park properly. However, when the sun came out, it was incredible! We managed to visit most of the beaches in a day, but to really experience them and soak up the beauty you would want to stay a while.
