based on 4,925 reviewsDiscover a world of wildlife in a single day at Zoo Miami, the ideal destination for families, couples, and solo explorers alike. Spanning 340 lush acres, our open-air, cageless zoo is home to over 3,000 animals representing more than 1,200 species, all thoughtfully arranged in immersive habitats that mirror the wilds of Africa, Asia, the Amazon, and Australia.
Get closer than ever to the animal kingdom. You can marvel at magnificent lions, tigers, and jaguars, observe playful orangutans and gentle rhinos, and learn from our expert keepers during daily “Meet the Zookeeper” talks. A must-see is the Wings of Asia Aviary, the largest Asian-themed aviary in the Western Hemisphere, where hundreds of colorful, free-flying birds surround you.
Journey through the lush, tropical Amazon and Beyond exhibit, where you'll encounter stealthy jaguars, massive anacondas, and rare harpy eagles, along with a 48,000-gallon freshwater aquarium. Then, explore the wonders of your own backyard in Florida: Mission Everglades. Come face-to-face with iconic locals like alligators, a majestic bald eagle, and playful river otters, and for an extra thrill, take an airboat ride along Lostman's River (additional fee applies).
Young explorers can burn off energy at the Playworld Playground, a fantastic combination of jungle gym and splash pad. With convenient food and drink spots throughout the park and a delightful gift shop for souvenirs, Zoo Miami promises an unforgettable adventure for everyone.
