This island in the river was once just a wasteground, but today it's a haven of wildlife and beautiful environmental sculpture. Go!

Ok, so we're not children, but this was still a great place to go and visit, and much cheaper than a zoo, although they don't really have anything different from the UK it's still lovely to get back to nature. The animals are really well looked after and we even got a go at milking one of the cows which was great fun.

The Melbourne Zoo is one of my children’s favorite attractions in all of Australia. Because of Australia’s unique ecosystems, they have some of the most unusual animals in the world, and they are all there in simulated natural habitats for people to enjoy who do not have the time or inclination to go into the outback. But seeing all the kangaroos, and koalas, is great.
