ADVERTISING FEATURE: Wild encounters await at Oakvale Wildlife Park

JUST a short drive from Port Stephens’ pristine beaches, Oakvale Wildlife Park is a family-owned sanctuary that combines fun, education, and conservation.

Spread across 25 acres, it’s home to kangaroos, koalas, reptiles, exotic species, and friendly farm animals.

Visitors can hand-feed animals, bottle-feed adorable baby animals, enjoy keeper talks, feeding shows, and take a tractor-trailer ride.

Cool off at Splash Bay Water Park, let the kids explore the playgrounds, or relax in one of the many picnic and BBQ areas.

Oakvale’s animal encounters offer unforgettable moments – from meeting a curious meerkat to standing beside a majestic koala.

With accessible facilities and something for everyone, it’s a fantastic, value-for-money day out for all ages.

Open daily from 10am to 5pm, Oakvale Wildlife Park is the perfect place to connect with nature and create lasting memories.
