Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary: General Admission & Koala Photo

With over 1000 native animals, Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary is home to one of the largest collections of Australian wildlife in the world. Established over 60 years ago, the Sanctuary has attracted millions of visitors and continues to promote opportunities to get closer and interact with Australia’s amazing wildlife. Set amongst 28 hectares of lush Eucalyptus and rainforest visitors can see many of Australia’s iconic species on display in their natural habitat. There are many interactive wildlife opportunities throughout the Sanctuary where you can cuddle a koala, feed a kangaroo, hold a baby crocodile or snake.

Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary has 13 daily shows including shows by Blinky Bill & his friends, the Free Flight Bird Show, Australiana Sheep Shearing Show, Dr. Doo-Lots and the Creature Teachers and the Yugambeh Aboriginal Dancers. Other notable highlights include the feeding of Boss Hog, a saltwater crocodile almost 5 metres in length, the cassowaries, wombats, Tasmanian devils, forest fringe birds and koalas.

Included in the admission price is the Wildlife Hospital Precinct where you can watch the vets in action. Dedicated to the care and rehabilitation of not only the local wildlife at the sanctuary, the wildlife hospital admits over 8500 animal patients brought in by the local community annually.

Optional upgrades are available for the Tree Top Challenge or guided Segway Safari tour located within the Sanctuary. Set amongst the treetops the Adventure Parc has over 80 thrilling high ropes challenges including bridges, ladders, a tarzan swing and exhilarating flying foxes spread over 5 courses. The Segway Safari allows you to glide through the Sanctuary on an eco friendly Segway with a friendly and informative guide showcasing points of interest along the way.
