Meet Australia’s most iconic marsupials at the Koala Conservation Reserve

Enjoy a peaceful and educational day immersed in native bushland at the Koala Conservation Reserve on Phillip Island. With your entry ticket, you’ll stroll along treetop boardwalks and come face-to-face with koalas in their natural habitat. Surrounded by towering eucalyptus trees, the reserve offers a unique opportunity to observe these sleepy creatures eating, resting, and interacting with their environment.

Explore the natural bushland trails

In addition to close-up koala encounters, the reserve is home to other native wildlife, including wallabies, echidnas, and bird species. The accessible trails, informative visitor centre, and ranger-led talks deepen your understanding of koala biology and ongoing conservation efforts.

Upgrade to the 3 Parks Pass

For a fuller nature experience, choose the 3 Parks Pass and gain access to Phillip Island’s top attractions:

  • Penguin Parade: Cap off your day with the world-famous Penguin Parade, where you’ll see little penguins waddle ashore at sunset from the general viewing platform.

  • Churchill Island: Step into history at this heritage farm and explore centuries-old cottages, traditional farming demonstrations, and scenic coastal walks.

Penguin Parade upgrades

  • Penguins Plus: Enjoy VIP views from a limited-capacity, beachfront platform set along the penguins’ most-used pathway—offering the closest and most personal viewing experience of the parade.

  • Underground viewing: Stay cozy in the weatherproof underground viewing platform and watch the evening penguin parade at eye level. This fully sheltered option places you just inches from the penguins’ path, making for intimate and unforgettable wildlife encounters.

Whether you're exploring the treetop trails of the Koala Conservation Reserve or experiencing the full 3 Parks adventure, this is an ideal way to connect with Australia's wildlife and natural beauty.
