Whether it is the expansive outback deserts or lush rainforests and the colorful coral reefs, the Australian terrain has a lot to offer to those who want to have a wildlife encounter. You might want to see a kangaroo hopping in the bush, sea turtles to swim with, or the infamous Tasmanian devil, but no matter what you are looking forward to, this continent will make your eyes pop out with awe and wonder.

Here are some of the top unique wildlife experiences in Australia. 


1. Snorkel with Sea Turtles in Great Barrier Reef 

The Great Barrier Reef is more than a wondrous world of colourful coral; it is the residence of green sea turtles, reef sharks, and a multitude of marine life. A snorkeling tour will enable you to swim with these docile animals in their natural environment. The lively ecosystem of the reef provides one of the finest underwater Wildlife Experiences in Australia and is ideal not only to families but also couples and those travelling on their own. 


2. Lucky Bay, Western Australia, is the place to meet Kangaroos on the Beach 

It is hard to believe that you can spend time on a beautiful white sand beach with kangaroos! You can do that at the Lucky Bay, Cape Le Grand National Park. It is an ideal place to photograph and have a close encounter with these friendly marsupials as you find these marsupials lining along the shore. It is a calm, mystical scene and gives a local flavor to any Australia Tour Package. 

 

3. See Penguin Parade at Phillip Island 

Hundreds of little penguins at Phillip Island come ashore after a day of fishing each night at sunset. It is a must-visit attraction and a very special wildlife experience, equally heart-warming and environmentally aware, in this world-renowned Penguin Parade. There are boardwalks and sitting areas where one can view in a respectful manner promoting conservation. 


4. Spotting Crocodiles at Kakadu National Park 

Crocodile cruise in Kakadu National Park in Northern Territory is an exciting option to those who want to have a taste of adrenaline. You will spot saltwater crocodiles in the natural river habitat and get to know how they behave with the help of professional guides. This uncivilized experience also brings out the wild heart of Australia. 


5. Swim with Whale Sharks Ningaloo Reef 

Whale sharks are the friendly giants of the sea and Ningaloo Reef in Western Australia provides one of the best places in the world to swim with them. These are magnificent animals which migrate in the reef during the months of March to August and this is a safe and unforgettable experience under eco-certified tour operators. 

 

6. See the elusive platypus in Tasmania 

Platypus is one of the most unusual and popular animals in Australia. These are retiring egg-laying mammals found most easily in the clear, freshwater streams of Tasmania. Guided tours to places such as the Upper Meander River or Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park give you a better chance of rare sighting. 

 


7. See koalas in the wild at Great Otway National Park 

Although you can find koalas in zoos, there is nothing better than seeing one sleeping in a eucalyptus tree when you go on a walk in the forest. The one of the healthiest koala populations in Australia is found in Great Otway National Park in Victoria. It is a relaxing, sedative one that places the travelers in the close proximity of the iconic Australian wildlife in a tranquil environment. 

 


8. Go to the Wildlife Sanctuary of Kangaroo Island 

Kangaroo Island is referred to as Australia Galapagos because it is isolated and very rich in wildlife. You can see sea lions sunbathing on the beach, echidnas waddling through the bush and kangaroos hopping around freely here. Find an escorted tour to make the best use of this life-filled island paradise. 


9. Birdwatching on Daintree Rainforest 

The old Daintree Rainforest is a storehouse of rare birds such as the colorful cassowary. It is a birdwatcher and nature lover dream destination. Go on a river cruise or wander the forest in search of crocodiles, frogs and tropical birds in a prehistoric-like setting. 


 

10. Glowworm Magic Springbrook National Park 


Wildlife encounters do not always occur in the day time. Go to Springbrook National Park in Queensland at night and you will see thousands of glowworms illuminating caves and paths through the forest. A spectacular, supernatural show, this is an elusive natural phenomenon and the most ideal climax of an adventurous day. 

Conclusion
