The Zoo With More Bite

 

Australian Reptile Park

Sobek PotraitThe Australian Reptile Park, located at Somersby on Sydney's Central Coast, guarantees exciting daily hands-on wildlife shows, uniquely themed exhibits, loads of native and exotic animals and non-stop fun! Set in the magic of the Australian bush, the zoo is situated less than an hour from Sydney's Harbour Bridge and from Newcastle, and offers the best fun day out!

Experience rare up-close animal encounters when you walk with dingoes, wobble with a wombat and gallivant with Hugo the Galapagos tortoise. Discover the Indiana Jones themed exhibit 'Lost World of Reptiles', home to loads of deadly and curious critters and featuring the giant icon of Sobek, the crocodile god. Untangle your way through the web of 'Spider World', Australia's only spider zoo with fun interactive displays, HUGE exotic tarantulas and the world's only funnel web spider venom milking show.

Have your photo taken with a cuddly koala or a huge python. Hand-feed friendly red, gray and Kangaroo Island kangaroos and be sure to save some food for the cheeky emus. See Tasmanian devils and learn all about their unique breeding program. Wander through the nature trail of wildflowers, trickling streams and bush fragrances. See platypus, cassowaries and yellow-footed rock wallabies. Scale the children's adventure playground, sizzle a sausage on the BBQ or enjoy a scrumptious lunch at Hard Croc Cafe. So why not indulge the whole family for the best funday out at the zoo with bite!
