Australia Zoo is located on the beautiful Sunshine Coast near the Glasshouse Mountains. Just 45 minutes north of Brisbane on the Glasshouse Mountains Tourist Drive, it is the home of some of Australia's most unique and amazing wildlife, as well as some remarkable animals from overseas. Your visit to the Home of The Crocodile Hunter will definitely thrill and amaze you!
Australia Zoo is open 9am - 5:00pm, 7 days a week (excluding Christmas Day)
If you’ve ever wanted to cuddle a koala, hand-feed an Asian Elephant, walk alongside a Bengal Tiger, take a Tasmanian Devil for a stroll, wrap a snake around your shoulders or watch a massive Saltwater Crocodile launch a strike from the water’s edge, then Australia Zoo is your ultimate destination.
Be sure to check out all of the animal action in our 5000-seat Animal Planet Crocoseum, home of the world’s ONLY Crike-Off! For the complete daily show schedule, click here.
