Can I see koalas in the Sutherland Shire?

Yes, you can spot koalas in the Sutherland Shire, particularly in areas that have eucalyptus trees, which are their main food source. While they can be elusive, the best chances are in bushland areas of the Royal National Park. • Look around the Bundeena area or near the Hacking River; these spots have been known for koala sightings, especially if you keep your eyes peeled for their distinct fluffy ears peeking out from the trees. Just remember to be respectful and keep a safe distance!
