Port Stephens Animal Adventures
There’s some stuff to do and see from Newcastle to Nelson Bay but one of the best attractions is Port Stephens Animal Adventures. The things you can do include feed, pat and play with sharks, rays, and eels (you can even swim with them and the water is always 25 degrees!). You will see and pat the rescued snakes and lizards.
Includes a free Leopard Shark Feeding Encounter
Experience the thrill with the Mega Ticket! Enjoy lunch under the sea in the unique cafe, meet an array of creatures from clownfish, and seahorses to Macaws, and dare to encounter the exotic insects and arachnids. Delight in the Butterfly House and Underwater Café, and relish the freedom to return for a year with the complimentary pass. It’s a whirlwind of excitement and discovery!
