Isle of Wight, UK

To give our family in Australia a reference point when we talked about the location of Mei's birthday weekend trip - we compared the Isle of Wight as England's version of Phillip Island (just without the penguins).
For the non-Victorian based readers, we invite you to do a quick internet search of Phillip Island, skipping over references to the MotoGP, koalas and giant earthworms; you will find that note only are the Isle of Wight and Phillip Island both lemon shaped, but they both have townships named Cowes and Ventnor.
