Billabong Koala and Wildlife Park, Wildlife park in Port Macquarie, Australia.
Billabong Koala and Wildlife Park is a 10-acre facility housing over 200 animals from 80 different species, including mammals, reptiles, and birds. Visitors can explore the grounds via wheelchair-accessible pathways and access cafes, shops, and picnic areas throughout the property.
The facility was founded in 1989 as a specialized koala breeding center and evolved into a comprehensive wildlife conservation facility over time.
The park holds educational sessions throughout the day where visitors learn about Australian wildlife and international conservation work through hands-on animal encounters.
The park is open daily from 9 AM to 5 PM and has clear signage for easy navigation throughout. Comfortable shoes are recommended since the grounds are large and varied, with some areas requiring walking.
Visitors can book personal encounters with snow leopards, red pandas, and meerkats while exploring gardens with koi ponds integrated throughout the park. This intimate experience with non-native species provides contrast to the koala focus.
