Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary

Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary is a world-renowned heritage-listed attraction on the Gold Coast, dedicated to the conservation and display of Australia’s unique flora and fauna. Spanning 27 hectares of lush eucalyptus forest and rainforest, the sanctuary allows visitors to get up close with iconic animals, including kangaroos, koalas, and crocodiles. It is famous for its daily lorikeet feedings, a tradition that has spanned decades. Beyond being a tourist attraction, it is home to the Currumbin Wildlife Hospital, one of the busiest wildlife hospitals in the world, which provides vital care to sick and injured native animals. Educational programs, Aboriginal cultural performances, and adventure activities like the TreeTop Challenge enhance the visitor experience. As a not-for-profit organization, the sanctuary reinvests its proceeds into conservation projects and research. It offers a meaningful way for families and travelers to connect with nature and learn about the importance of protecting Australia’s biodiversity in a beautiful, natural setting.
