With over 100 species of Australian native animals, the Phillip Island Wildlife Park is a huge nature park set over 60 acres on the picturesque Phillip Island.
This park is popular with island visitors because they can have close encounters with the wildlife living within the park.

If you are lucky, you might spot a kangaroo with a joey in their pouch, so bring your camera! There are also koalas, dingoes, kookaburras, echidnas and Tasmanian devils.
Many species of birds live within the park, including emu and cassowary. You can also get up close with many nocturnal species, including a tawny frogmouth, bats, and various owl species. A number of parrots and cockatoos roam freely around the park.
Located near the Penguin Parade, visiting this park is a great way to spend the day before you head off at sunset to see the fairy penguins come to shore.
Hi,
May I know the tentative closing time of Phillip Island Wildlife Park on Sunday, December 2, 2018? I plan to visit the park in the late afternoon on that day and would like to check if there is enough time to be at the park.
Thanks.
Hi Prachum,
The park is open every day of the year (except Christmas Day), so your date will be fine. Currently the park is open from around 10am- 5pm, but it’s stated that the park is open until later during certain times of the year. They suggest calling them on (03) 59 522 038 to check the exact times.
As for the time to walk through, checking my photos of when i was there about a month ago, it seems like we spent around 1 hour in the park, but allow for more time if you plan to have one of the private encounters or eat at the cafe there.
Thanks
Michael
Hi,
May I know if I need to buy the tickets online before-hand, or do I just buy on the spot when I reach the Philip Island Wildlife Park? I cant really find any option to allow me to buy tickets online too..
Thanks!
Cheers
Daryll
Hi Daryll,
The Phillip Island Wildlife Park don’t sell online tickets, so you can just purchase tickets at the gate upon your arrival.
Best regards,

Hi,
I’d like to ask, is it possible to take a engagement photoshoot at Phillup Island Wildlife Park? How much should I pay?
I won’t use any big gowns or something, just something casual. I come from Indonesia and would like to take engagement pictures with kangaroos or koalas, etc.
Waiting for your response. thank you
Hi Voni,
You will need to contact the attraction directly to see if you need to pay anything other than the standard admission fee.
Unfortunately, I cannot find an email address for them, so you will have to call: (03) 5952 2038.
Best regards,
Jess
