What's not included
In-water experience (available to purchase on-site)
- Learn about the importance of of the ocean’s ecosystems during a first-hand experience swimming with sharks
- Enjoy an encounter with the animals that would usually only take place with a pane of glass separating you
- Take your pick from a number of experiences, from a shallow water encounter to snorkelling and feeding
Swimming with sharks is usually an expensive experience, but at Irukandji you’ll have the chance to mingle with a variety of shark and ray species at a more realistic price. And, best of all, 5% of their annual profit goes into research and conservation of the ocean and its inhabitants!
Choose from a number of encounters: a shallow wade in a small lagoon, a dip in a wetsuit where you can feed and interact with the animals, a tropical snorkel amongst sharks and rays, a zebra shark encounter, and a tawny nurse shark encounter that will let you feel the incredible suction they produce (they can suck in six litres of water in one second)! Every encounter comes with commentary from the staff so you can learn more about the marine life you're meeting.
- Show your smartphone ticket at the venue for entry
- It is recommended to arrive before 15:30 to enjoy the full experience

Established on November 1st, 1979, Oakvale Wildlife Park has proudly remained an Australian family-owned and operated venture for over four decades. Initially inaugurated as Oakvale Farm & Fauna World, the park has undergone countless changes, including a name change in 2018 to Oakvale Wildlife Park. Among its most recent enhancements is the introduction of 'Koala Country,' a dedicated koala breeding and education center.
Nestled within 25 acres of pristine Australian bushland, the park boasts a diverse array of wildlife, encompassing native Australian species, domestic farm animals, and exotic creatures, including the likes of koalas, kangaroos, Tasmanian devils, goats, sheep, rabbits, alligators, ostriches, and more.
You can look forward to a day filled with a variety of activities, including the chance to hand-feed free-roaming animals, engaging Keeper Talks, captivating Feeding Shows, and the opportunity to explore two large, shaded playgrounds.
