Welcome to Phillip Island Wildlife Park, a must-visit establishment and tourist attraction located at Cowes, Phillip Island Road, 2115. As an enchanting park and zoo, we offer a unique opportunity to experience the diverse wildlife that Australia is famous for, as well as spot some rare and seldom seen animals.

Spread across a vast 60 acres, our park is home to over 100 different species of Australian animals. Here, you can not only observe these magnificent creatures, but also hand feed them and have up-close encounters. It's truly a remarkable experience that both international and local visitors will cherish.

One of the highlights of our park is the free-range environment where kangaroos and wallabies roam freely. You can hand feed and pat these gentle creatures, ranging from the majestic Red Kangaroos to the adorable Parma Wallabies. Witness kangaroos with their joeys all year round and enjoy the unique opportunity to view koalas up close from our raised boardwalk.

In addition to these iconic animals, our park is also home to a variety of bird species. Their distinct calls fill the air as you marvel at the size of the flightless Emu and Cassowary. Explore the world of nocturnal birds like the Tawny Frogmouths and various species of owls. Admire the colorful parrots, loud cockatoos, and birds of prey, both big and small.

Children will be captivated by the sight of bats hanging upside down, koalas perched in trees, and baby animals nestled in their mothers' pouches. They'll delight in touching the soft fur of a wallaby and feeling the rough coat of a wombat.
