Redlands Coast is home to one of the most significant urban koala populations in Australia. While koala populations have diminished over the years, a viable breeding population can still be found in the area.

You can improve the health and wellbeing of our koala population while you’re out on a walk, going for a jog or a ride. Simply record your koala sightings through Redlands Coast Koala Watch.
