An elected Dutton Liberal Government has committed $1 million to a larger-than-life addition to the iconic Australian Reptile Park in Somersby.
This commitment will support the construction of a Giant Bug Garden & Splash Adventure precinct at the Australian Reptile Park – a visually captivating garden filled with larger-than-life insects – which has been designed to promote water play, learning, and discovery.
The immersive new precinct designed to attract visitors year-round, boost local tourism, and provide Central Coast families with an engaging and affordable day out.
Liberal candidate for Robertson, Lucy Wicks, welcomed the announcement as a big win for Coasties, young and old.
“The Australian Reptile Park has, for decades, been an iconic destination for local schools, families and tourists alike, but this commitment will be a much-needed boost for tourism on the Central Coast,” Ms Wicks said.
“We know that our restaurants and cafes have been particularly affected by Labor’s cost-of[1]doing-business crisis and this commitment will only bring more visitors to our region.”
Australian Reptile Park General Manager, Tim Faulkner, also welcomed the commitment as the start of an exciting new chapter for the Australian Reptile Park.
“We are incredibly grateful for the support from Lucy Wicks because the Giant Bug Garden & Splash Adventure will deliver a whole new level of fun and learning for our visitors.”
“Our annual pass holders are going to love the new additions – it means even more value and more reasons to come back all year round.”
This commitment is part of the Liberals’ plan to get Australia back on track.
