Newquay Zoo
... experience the world's wildlife

From big cats to zebras and wildebeest, get closer to over 130 species of wonderful wildlife, living side by side, in Cornwall’s Biggest zoo – set amid exotic lakeside gardens in Trenance Leisure Park, Newquay.

See the penguins relaxing in their pool, visit the creepiest crawlies in the atmospheric tropical house, watch the big cats get their lunch and learn more about conservation. Animal encounters and exciting keeper talks as well as children’s play areas offer plenty to keep people of all ages and abilities occupied – a perfect day out for the whole family.

The African Savannah exhibit is home to stunning Black Wildebeest, Nyala Antelope and strikingly beautiful Zebra – for a birds eye view, watch these animals roaming their enclosure from a viewing platform. Look out, too, for beautiful red pandas, meerkats on sentry duty and the otters playing in their stream. As well as a large variety of unusual species, the zoo has a village farm with more familiar faces.

There are daily animal talks led by the zoo’s rangers where you can discover amazing facts about the animals at Newquay Zoo. Plus you can take part in their fun, free and interactive nature themed activities

Visit the Cafe Lemur for a varied menu and delicious food, the majority of which is locally sourced, in a relaxed setting overlooking Lemur Island.

Newquay Zoo also offers animal experiences which, depending on availability, can be booked on the day. These are a fantastic opportunity to get up close and feed some of your favourite animals. To enquire, please call 01637 873342.
