Get along to the iconic Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary on the Gold Coast. Home to some of Australia’s most iconic animals, as well as a few exotic friends as well...
Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary Admission includes park entry, all daily shows, access to our wildlife hospital viewing platform and use of our miniature train.
With over 27 hectares of wide-open spaces featuring lush Eucalyptus trees and rainforest, Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary is a great day out for the young, and young at heart. You will get to see many of Australia’s iconic species displayed in their natural habitat.
Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary is a not-for-profit organisation that invests all proceeds back into caring for wildlife, assisting with running our wildlife hospital, and taking part in 15 conservation projects to ensure wildlife for future generations to enjoy.
Take part in optional interactive wildlife opportunities, such as cuddling a koala, pat a kangaroo, feed a capybara or a Red Panda, enjoy a dingo experience or do a behind the scenes tour. There is so much more to explore!
Enjoy a 20-minute loop around the Sanctuary, a local icon since 1964. Walk on the wild side with unforgettable daily animal encounters and experiences bringing you face-to-face with extraordinary wildlife. Make memories and take advantage of our professional photographer at once-in-a-lifetime moments including Dingo Walk and for younger guests, Scaly Tales reptile encounter.
A must-do is our wild lorikeet feeding. This occurs at 8am and 4 pm and is a great way to start or finish your day with us.
Take in a few of our Live daily shows, meet Blinky Bill and friends, and get a bird’s-eye-view of our vets in action at the amazing wildlife hospital.
Lots of things to see and do. Train ride from one side of the park to the other is a really fun way to get around, especially as it was a rainy day.
Currumbin is a must do experience for all families visiting the GC. The setting is stunning and a provided lots of much needed shade on the day we visited. The shows were impressive and the staff and volunteers were great. I was pleased the photos you could purchase with birds, snakes etc, were well priced.
Was a great place to visit. This was the only theme park I hadn't been to. The bird show was fantastic. Get the photo with the eagle if you can. Everyone gets koala photos (which you can get at most theme parks), but an eagle one is unique. Only complaint would be that we had to forward our email confirmation from Bookme to the staff, so they could print it. Reason given was so they could get reimbursement back from bookme. This held us up, but apart from that was a good day out.
The staff are wonderful. They really care for the animals in their care. Bird show was amazing! I had a broken ankle and was in a boot and the train staff really looked after me. We googled the history of the sanctuary before our visit and it is such a wonderful legacy to the man behind it being what it is today. Also made sense to us why the bee house is outside. Would recommend Currumbin to everyone visiting Queensland.
