Maru Koala and Animal Park

“2025/10 Maru Koala and Animal Park The Maru Koala and Animal Park is a popular wildlife park located in Grantville, Victoria, on the way to Phillip Island. It offers visitors the chance to get close to some of Australia’s most iconic animals, including koalas, kangaroos, wallabies, wombats, and emus. Visitors can hand-feed kangaroos, take photos with koalas, and learn about Australian wildlife through keeper talks and shows. The park also features a mini golf course and a café, making it a great stop for families and tourists exploring the region. Maru Koala and Animal Park focuses on wildlife conservation and education, helping visitors understand the importance of protecting Australia’s native animals and their habitats.”

“This place is incredible. Going in with the kids we didn’t have much expectations but just to see some koalas and may be feed them. But the place just surprised us. There’s loads of Koalas and kangaroos and you can feed any of them freely while touching them. Somme more reptiles and birds are available as well. Good facilities and the kids enjoyed the tour immensely.”

“You can pay extra for animal experiences. We didnt opt for these so I can't speak much on what they are like. The animals were very active in their enclosures. However we couldnt see anything in the nocturnal enclosure. The kangaroos weren't all too interested in the feed and they mainly chilled in their refuge areas. There is a cafe and a gift shop. The mini golf was fun and pirate themed.”

“Visited Maru Koala & Animal Park again after nearly 10 years, and the difference was noticeable. Earlier, there was a wide variety of active kangaroos and the park felt more lively. This time, there were hardly around 10 kangaroos, and most were just sleeping. The Tasmanian devil was the only animal that felt energetic, running around and engaging. Most of the other animals were sitting or inactive. Overall, it wasn’t what we expected based on our previous visit. An average experience this time”
