Newquay Zoo

About

Pre-booking is essential.

Newquay Zoo is set within 13 acres of lush tropical gardens, just a short stroll from Newquay town centre. During your visit you can get close to dozen of the world’s rarest and endangered animals, whilst also learning about the conservation work carried out by the zoo.　

Discover all your animal favourites big and small, including lions, lemurs, otters, penguins, red pandas, lynx, armadillos, meerkats, plus a variety of different bird and reptile species.

To refuel during the day, there are food outlets around the site to grab a takeaway drink or snack. Situated next to the main entrance, the gift shop is stocked full of unique gifts, cuddly toys and branded souvenirs.

Newquay Zoo is a registered charity, so not only do you get a good day out, you know your money is going to a good cause, supporting education, scientific research and practical conservation around the world. Newquay Zoo supports a number of projects in the UK and overseas that aim to conserve wildlife in the wild, as well as playing a key role in breeding programmes for rare and endangered species. You can also help by purchasing an Annual Pass, for year-round entry to the zoo.

Newquay Zoo is open from 10am every day (except Christmas Day). Closing times and last entry varies throughout the year so please see the zoo’s website or call 01637 873342.

We are limiting the number of guests per day, including Annual Pass holders and anyone who has a complimentary ticket. Entry is permitted in half-hour slots throughout the day (this refers to your arrival time, not the length of your visit).

In line with Government guidelines, we are currently unable to permit any groups of guests with more than six people into the zoo.

There are many Covid-19 safety measures implemented around the site to ensure that everyone can have an enjoyable and safe visit. For full details, please see the Newquay Zoo website.
