A Free Day Out with Wildlife Wonders
Discover nearly 100 animals across more than 30 native and exotic species at Rockhampton Zoo, set within the lush Rockhampton Botanic Gardens. This free attraction has something for everyone!
Meet a curious mob of meerkats, get to know the charismatic chimpanzee family, and marvel at “The Colonel,” their giant saltwater crocodile, in the Australian Wetlands zone. The aviaries sparkle with vibrant native birds, and the otters are a guaranteed hit, splashing and playing like children at the water’s edge.
Allow a couple of hours to soak up the wildlife, then take a relaxing stroll through the Botanic Gardens and around the scenic Murray Lagoon. Plus, for an enhanced experience, download the Explore Rockhampton self-guided audio tours app, available on Apple and Google Play, and learn even more about Rockhampton Zoo’s amazing residents.
