Gold Coast & Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary

Australia’s ‘Glitter Strip’ and Unique Wildlife

Combine Australia’s holiday capital with a personalised tour of the region’s largest and most popular wildlife sanctuary.

Get up close to koalas, see the bird-of-prey show, hand-feed kangaroos and see hundreds of other unique Aussie wildlife.

Then, from the iconic Surfers Paradise beach to lesser known beaches with stunning coastal views, see why 11 million visitors flock to Gold Coast annually.

(Note: this includes a wonderful personally guided tour around the public area of the sanctuary; not ‘behind-the-scenes’ areas).

SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES

  • Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary – Get up close to koalas, see and see many other Aussie animals such as crocodiles, Tasmanian devils, wallabies, wombats, snakes and dingos.
  • Point Danger – Beautiful headland on the state border. Views north look along the whole Gold Coast skyline. Views south look along the much quieter New South Wales.
  • Snapper Rocks and Coolangatta – Some of Australia’s premier surf spots are also beautiful beaches.
  • Elephant Rock – Walk up the 20-metre high volcanic rock in the middle of the beach.
  • Drive past some of Gold Coast’s most prestigious homes.
  • Surfers Paradise – The Glitter Strip’s most famous area – with Cavill Ave next to the beach.
  • The Spit – Park surrounded by water on all sides – with views of the broadwater & mountains.
  • If time allows – look for kangaroos in the wild at Coombabah Lakelands.
  • If time allows – Burleigh Heads National Park – walk around the headland with ocean views.
