Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo, Gulf Shores

Such a nice zoo. The staff is always so friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the on-site dining and activities such as merry-go-round, sluicing, and animal encounters. The walkways are wide and easy to use. Bathrooms are clean and accessible. The kids enjoyed the play areas. Overall a great zoo!

What a lovely zoo! We went right when it opened and it was very peaceful. It’s very clean and well kept, all of the animals seemed to be very relaxed and happy. We ended up walking around the loop twice and that gave us an opportunity to see some of the animals that were still sleeping when we first showed up. We will come back if we are in the area again!

Awesome Zoo great price and plenty to do and keeps interest for kids and adults! The butterfly exhibit was a nice addition and probably one of our favorite things. We went around noon and unfortunately most of the cats were asleep and we never did see a male lion. But we will definitely be back!

We have been visiting this zoo since it was in the old location in gulf shores. The little zoo that could has transformed into one of the nicest zoos in this part of the country! From the animal encounters to the attractions they have available, it’s guarantied fun for every age. The gift shop is wonderful! The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable as well! The safari club restaurant is a must do, when visiting! The chicken tacos and bacon jam burger was the best! We stop anytime we are near just for the safari club!

Not quite as good as fellow reviewers led me to believe. When driving up to this place there is a grand entrance like Jurassic Park and a long driveway in leading you to believe that you are going into a larger zoo than you actually are. They boast 300 animals, but when you have several of the same kind over and over it doesn't seem like you are seeing very much. I would go 45 minutes east to Gulf Breeze instead if given the chance over again.
