It is a very joyful place. You can see many little penguins here. In fact, you can also see seals. There is a penguin park here, where you can see interesting performances by penguins. It is very happy.

There's a long-term parking lot at the boat stop for $12 a day. Overall, the trip was great for families. The boat tickets are indeed expensive, as are the island's shuttle bus. But my wife and I loved it; the kangaroos alone were enough. The views from the key parking spots were spectacular. Kangaroos were everywhere. Back at the pier, buy some bread and sit by the roadside; a kangaroo will approach you. It wants bread, but it's best to feed it leaves.

I had a really nice experience here. The highlight was definitely being able to get very close to the koalas and kangaroos, which made the visit feel much more personal and memorable. There are also other animals, including many birds and ducks that freely walk around the park.The park may not have a huge variety of wild animals, and some areas of the ground can be a little messy because of the free-roaming birds and ducks. However, overall, it was still a very enjoyable experience, especially because of the close encounters with the koalas and the opportunity to take photos with them.
