As a top-ranked, community-built organisation in Melbourne, Florida, Brevard Zoo is home to animals native to Africa, South America, Australasia and Florida. One of the most beloved experiences at the Zoo is getting eye-to-eye to feed our majestic giraffes—a memory that will stay with you forever. The magic continues with opportunities to feed playful kangaroos, colourful lorikeets, and gentle cockatiels.

We’re more than a destination, however – we do our part to meet the environmental needs of our community, and we’re connecting our corner of the world to greater conservation efforts at the state, national and global levels.

Visit us for a chance to enjoy an outdoor adventure while doing some good in our world.

Book an additional awe-inspiring encounter with one of nature’s most elusive creatures—our okapi — or choose to connect with our Southern white rhinos at our other encounters. During the encounter, you’ll learn straight from our animal care experts all about these species.

Other exciting extras include kayaking through Florida wetlands or around animal habitats, taking a train ride through an animal habitat, and adventuring through the treetops with our aerial adventures.
