The Australian Reptile Park is Australia’s original hands-on zoo. A home to over 2,000 animals, located in a natural bush setting on the scenic Central Coast of New South Wales. You can cuddle up with koalas, kangaroos, quokkas and dingoes or test your bravery and hold a massive python. Only 60 minutes from Sydney or Newcastle, the Australian Reptile Park is a centerpiece attraction of the Central Coast.
