Zoo Miami With Children

There is plenty do do in Miami Beach with kids, and the area has much more to offer than the nightlife and Art Deco architecture. The city is home to the country’s only subtropical zoo, Zoo Miami, and it’s one of the most popular family destinations here. Covering around 750 acres, it’s the 5th largest in the US and is home to around 500 different animal species. Five main themed areas cover different geographic regions, including the Amazon and Africa. Over 100 species at the zoo are considered to be endangered and the zoo is proud of its conservation efforts. Kids enjoy presentations by zoo staff, a schedule of animal feedings, a water play area and a variety of child friendly rides. And most kids really enjoy taking part in one of the regular sleepovers and listening to the nighttime animal noises.
