Meet endangered Australian native animals in a natural bushland setting, during the day or on our unique and magical evening walks.
Daytime: We are open during the day from 11am to 5pm. Get close to koalas, kangaroos and dingos, as well as colourful native birds, including cockatoos and waterbirds. See reptiles, frogs, and interesting insects in our visitor centre. Have a coffee in our cafe overlooking our wetlands and grazing kangaroos. You can visit Moonlit Sanctuary on a MorningtonPeninsulaAttractionsPass, which also gives admission to Ashcombe Maze, Cape Schanck Lighthouse, and PointNepeanNational Park, as well as bonus offers. Passes may be purchased at Moonlit Sanctuary or on our website. Evening tours: Come close to animals now extinct on mainland Australia, like the southern bettong, eastern quoll, and red-bellied pademelon. A knowledgeable guide will provide an entertaining and interesting commentary. Moonlit Sanctuary is an orchestrated environmental immersion experience, which introduces nocturnal fauna to park visitors As so many of Australia's native animals appear only after dark, they are virtually unknown to the local community, let alone out of state or international visitors. Visitors walk around a bush area after dark in small groups with a guide who gives an entertaining commentary on the animals. The entire bush area is enclosed in a fox-proof fence, and some animals are at liberty within this area. Others are contained in enclosures for purposes of conservation breeding. Tours take one and a half hours and start from dusk each evening. Come on one of our public group tours, or enjoy a private tour, ideal for the wildlife lover or photography enthusiast. Bookings required for our evening tours. We also offer:
* School holiday programs * Children's parties and functions for groups. * Educational programs for school groups * "Keeper for the day" experience.
