Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary
A short drive from The Garland, Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary offers an immersive escape into 27 hectares of lush rainforest and wildlife encounters. From hand-feeding kangaroos and cuddling koalas to wandering through open enclosures and exploring the exotic Lost Valley, it’s a truly unforgettable experience. With daily shows, cultural performances, and a miniature train winding through the park, Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary blends conservation, education, and adventure in one wild day out.
Pat a kangaroo, cuddle a koala, and watch rainbow lorikeets descend during the iconic daily feeding. The sanctuary is home to hundreds of native animals, and you’ll get to meet them in open enclosures that feel as natural as the rainforest setting.
Step into another world in the Lost Valley - a five-hectare journey through Gondwana, where you'll encounter exotic species like red pandas, lemurs, capybaras, and reptiles amid ancient rainforest flora.
Only 15 minutes from The Garland, Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary is perfect for families, couples, and nature seekers alike. Let the kids roam Wild Island, ride the miniature train, or take in a free-flight bird show, it’s one of the Gold Coast’s most loved attractions for good reason.
