ZooWorld Zoological Park

Experience the WILD!

Its a great place to take a break from the beach and create lasting family memories! ZooWorld Zoological Park, located in beautiful Panama City Beach, Florida is home to exotic animals from all over the world and you won’t need binoculars to see them! Pet a sloth, kiss a kangaroo , feed a giraffe, meet a lemur…or even pet a porcupine!

This place is wilder than the beach at spring break!

2023 and ZooWorld is the place to be!

This year we are continuing our trend of award winning improvements and interactive facility upgrades. This year we unveiled a brand new alligator experience area that is home to 40 yearling gators and will make sure that your Florida vacation is what dreams are made of.
