Just 2.5 hours from Sydney, Port Stephens Koala Sanctuary is a restorative nature escape where you will be surrounded by gum trees, wildlife and the beauty of the coast.
Set in peaceful bushland at One Mile, close to Nelson Bay, the sanctuary offers meaningful ways to experience nature, including mindful walks along the Sanctuary Story Walk and pausing on the elevated Sky Walk to observe koalas in their natural habitat.
Stay overnight in a gorgeous glamping tent or modern hotel room and wake to the sounds of the bush – and enhance your visit with a 2-night wellness retreat, gentle ‘Koala Dawn’ experience or coastal walk designed to deepen your connection with nature and self.
Visitors can also learn about koala rescue and rehabilitation at the state-of-the-art Koala Hospital. Every visit supports vital conservation, making this a feel-good escape that nourishes both people and wildlife.
