Meet over 1,000 of the world’s rarest and most endangered animals at Newquay Zoo, owned by Libema, a Dutch leisure company, gives you the chance to get up close to many animals, from sloths and penguins to zebras and meerkats.
Just a short walk from the centre of Newquay, and set in grounds over thirteen acres, a visit to the zoo is a great way to teach children about conservation. Discover their breeding programmes and see if any new babies have arrived this year!
Home to many endangered wildlife species – including pied tamarins, ring-tailed lemurs, Visayan warty pigs and, our newest residents, hyenas, to name a few. The new exhibit for 2025, Wonders of the Wild, showcases some of the marvellous adaptions that nature can make.
Children can run wild in two outdoor play areas, before all enjoying a bite to eat from the café at the zoo.
