Oakvale Wildlife Park

Oakvale Wildlife Park The ULTIMATE HANDS-ON wildlife park in beautiful Port Stephens! Welcome to Oakvale Wildlife Park – where every day is a wild adventure! Plus many, many more.
(2721)

Nestled in the heart of nature, we're an Australian family-owned sanctuary since 1979. Immerse yourself in 25 acres of diverse wildlife, from playful kangaroos to cheeky goats. Our commitment to hands-on experiences, captivating Keeper Talks, and thrilling adventures sets us apart. With up to 70% of our animals you can have a form of interaction with, it is the ultimate hands-on animal experience.

At the park, you will find an endless menagerie of Australian native and domestic farm animals such as ducklings, rabbits, goats, sheep, cattle and horses, koalas, kangaroos, wombats, emus, dingos and a myriad of birds as small as a quarrion and as large as an ostrich. We aim to ensure a fun, safe, educational and value-for-money experience for the whole family whilst keeping things as hands-on as possible.

Happy World Parrot Day! 🦜

Today we’re celebrating the incredible colours, personalities and cheeky charm of the amazing parrots who call Oakvale home. From playful macaws and curious cockatoos to our chatty feathered friends, every parrot brings something unique to the park. 💚💛❤️

Did you know parrots are some of the most intelligent birds in the world? They can solve problems, mimic sounds and form strong social bonds — which is why we love sharing their stories with our visitors every day.

Our bird encounters give guests the chance to get up close with these incredible birds, interact with them and discover each parrot’s unique personality firsthand — from the confident show-offs to the gentle cuddle seekers.

Next time you visit, make sure to stop by and say hello to our vibrant flock!
