Absolutely wonderful experience. We went on a Monday afternoon and my son loved it. It wasn't ridiculously crowded. Very fairly priced. Good size, didn't take hours to get through it all. And the fountain was a great way to end it all and cool off. My sons favorite exhibit was the otters. They were very interactive and playful. I highly recommend for any parents looking for an afternoon activity for toddlers.

This zoo is a gem. Beautifully landscaped a large exhibitions. The signage is informative. I especially liked that the keeper talks happened throughout the day. Just the right length of time for kids. The educated keepers would then make themselves available to answer additional questions. Don't miss the flamingo walk.

Wonderful! My 22 month old had a blast at Boo at the Zoo! So did we, the adults! This was our first time at the zoo and I was really impressed! Very cleans the design layout was nice! Shaded areas which will help when we go in the afternoons. A variety of animals and a lot of other kid activities. The boo at the zoo event was awesome! If you go Friday nights it's only $10 per adult. I enjoyed the number of vendors, free goodies, and numerous opportunities to trick or treat. There was a DJ, which my tiny dancer loved and the ... read more

Let's start off this by saying I am a big fan of Zoo's and wildlife. The Palm Beach Zoo is very small relative to what I am used to. It took me about 1.5-2hours to walk through the entire zoo, not including the time I took to have lunch Tropics Cafe. But what it lacks in size it makes up for in charm and opportunity. There is lots of opportunity to meet and feed a few animals which I view as one of the best things about this zoo. It is pleasantly decorated and clean. Staff was very friendly and informative. I really enjoyed... read more

It's nice that there is a zoo that you can take the kiddos to go to see animals they otherwise would not be able to see up close... Location is nice... it's close to the Science Center and Dreher park. The zoo is small, separated into sections with a nice water -fountain-water- park type thing (sorry I dunno what it's called... a bunch of sprinklers where kiddos can run through)in the middle. You can get through it in about 1-2 hours or so. There is a decent variety of animals to see here. Notably, there's a cool albino al... read more

Beautiful zoo! The layout of this zoo is very well put together. It's much bigger on the inside than it appears. Despite the Florida heat, the abundance of shade makes most of the zoo rather cool. Great place for infants and small children. Free parking.

First time I visited zoo was almost three years ago. I liked how shaded the zoo, so we could see more animal unlike Miami Zoo. We were very excited to visit the zoo. Today I was pretty disappointed, most of the animals were hiding. And it seems like nothing to see or do at this zoo. The best part of the zoo is splash play, kids had blast.

This zoo is VERY small. You can easily finish it in about an hour. My kids get bored quickly here. They have a large splash pad right in the center of the zoo. It works as a giant loop. You go section by section and end at the splash pad each time. I do like this set up. The nicest section is near the exit where you can see and feed the lorikeets and they have neat animals like the lemurs and other monkeys and birds. For the amount of animals I feel like it is a bit pricey and the kiddie section is often closed.
