We participated in the penguin feeding twice and both have been an exceptionally great experience. The staff here is very knowledgeable, kind and patience. Though the initial cost for a feeding might seem to be a bit “high” but you will get a very memorable and super unique experience for the money. We have some great pictures of our children feeding the penguins and also some great photos of our children feeding the birds.

It's great to see the different types of sea life. Both salt and fresh water fish are on display. We liked the jellyfish and the perfect end with the penguins, which is a fan favorite. The gift shop is next to here to probably the best gift shop in the zoo.

8/2022 5* Love visiting the penguins here. 3/2021 5* What an awesome exhibit. Lots to see and learn about. Just wish they could get it to smell better. But it is very realistic and entertaining.

The Living Coast is the aquarium of the zoo on the SouthWest end. Once you enter the building you can smell the sea and saltwater. In the middle there is a great penguin exhibit where they hang out and swim around. Plenty of other aquariums are professionally displayed inside. Lots of great...
