WILD LIFE Hamilton Island

Loved it - the animals were great, there was a nice selection and they were all Australian, so was nice to see us being presented to the world in this way. The zoo was small, only taking about 15 minutes to walk around, but the animals were well looked after and the venue was excellent, keeping with the natural setting and forest environment. The staff were a little hopeless trying to purchase entry tickets, and the whole entry process was very convoluted, but once inside the gate it was fine. Was also a shame that the animal feedings and talks were all very late or early in the day, so people coming from the mainland weren't able to see them (as the ferries back to the mainland don't run that early or late). We really loved to zoo and think its a great showcase of Australia.

I had coffee and cake here. The coffee was very average, cake was nice though.
