Koala Conservation Centre

The Koala Conservation Centre is an environmentally sustainable centre dedicated to the protection and conservation of koalas.

The Koala Conservation Centre is conveniently located within Phillip Island and is about 145km from south-eastern Melbourne and on the main road as you enter Phillip island.

This unique conservation park boasts large acres of Australian bushland and grasslands which house an array of koalas, kangaroos, echidnas and bats. This park is unique as, unlike a zoo, the Koala Conservation Centre allows visitors to get the chance to see these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat.

The park has been designed so that visitors can get up and close with the hundreds of koalas that call the conservation centre home. The boardwalks climb up into the trees so that you can see the koalas at eye level as they eat, sleep and climb. You might even get lucky and see some of the newborn babies as they cling to their mother’s backs.

With the aim of promoting koala conservation, this environmentally minded attraction has been instrumental in saving Phillip Islands natural koala habitat which has seen the koalas in this area breed and grows in numbers. If you so choose, you can take a Koala Eco-Explorer Tour where you will be taken around the park by a ranger and given behind the scenes information about the koalas and their life on Phillip Island.

There is also a visitor interpretation centre in the park which gives important information about the various animals that live on Phillip Island as well as the conservation efforts in place to protect these beautiful Australian marsupials.
