Cute & small zoo!
Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo has become 'The Little Zoo That Grew' since we moved to our new 25-acre home! The Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo is home to exotic animals, including lions, tigers, giraffes, reptiles, kangaroos, lemurs, and sloths, to name just a few. The Zoo features a domestic barn, seasonal animal adventures, a mining sluice, and interactive animal shows during the spring and summer months. The mission of the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo is to create compelling experiences that connect people and community with wildlife and inspire personal responsibility for the conservation of the natural world.

From Disappointment To Joy!
After four years of making Gulf Shores our destination point for our 3 week ministry and personal sabbatical we decided to take advantage of places and things we had never experienced, one of which was the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo. Having read the reviews we came with great expectation. However towards the end of our visit we had a huge disappointment. We tried unsuccessfully to view the multiple places were the "cats" were located. Seemed their habitats were completely empty. Found a could of workers who my wife Karen stopped and asked where they were. They were wonderful in getting in touch with Katelyn the local resident cat trainer and overseer at the Zoo. Katelyn went over and above the ordinary to give us an exhibit by exhibit tour of where they were hidden and an extensive history of each animal. She was truly a grace gift to us. We highly recommend the entire zoo for "children" of all ages: 8-80. It will be worth your time and effort!

Clean but overpriced
We visit zoos quite often, and while we were impressed with how clean this zoo is, we weren’t impressed by the cost. 2 adults and 2 children cost nearly $80 after tax. The zoo in Omaha, which is one of the largest, comes in at a lower price. We appreciated the fresh air, since we’ve been to some zoos that were pretty smelly, but I wouldn’t recommend this zoo if you’re on any sort of budget. It’s just not a big value. I think it took us less than an hour to see all the animals and exhibits. Pretty disappointing since we were looking forward to a zoo visit on our beach trip.
