It's free to look around and listen to the show. The shows are every two hours more or less. The whole place was very busy and congested. They have 200 alligators in different stages of life. The alligators are from local farms and then give them to nature preserves when they age out. You can get a pole and food for $5 but the gators seemed well feed. You can also get a photo with a baby gator (taped mouth) for $.

There's food, there's shops, there's a guy juggling fire (maybe--it felt like there could be). I came for a peaceful walk and left with a pineapple drink, a henna tattoo, and a new best friend named Carl who sells seashell wind chimes. Parking? Good luck. You'll walk 47 miles, but at least you'll burn off that fried shrimp platter. Bring comfy shoes and your wildest beach hat. Also maybe a life coach, just in case you have an existential crisis trying to pick between the fudge shop and the taco stand.

It is a small building but they have packed it with activities that seem to cover a wide age range. We went on a Monday so it was mostly small kids, but my fifth-grader spent three hours going through all the indoor and outdoor exhibits before we left for lunch. We sprang for the planetarium and it was a bit long for the small kids but mine was interested the whole time. We were impressed with the inflatable planetarium.

However this can cause behavioral problems for the animals as well. I did enjoy my experience and saw everyone attending responsible and respecting the animals, however it could be easy for this to not happen with the interactive element. I did more than likely go off season with less staff than normal, but I do hope there is more zoo staff that can help keep watch on the enclosures and those in attendance of the zoo. I did also enjoy the food at the zoo and the gift shop was very wonderful and extensive. I definitely would recommend this zoo, and talked to a lovely staff member who was highly educated on lions, and their husbandry process with the SSP.

A top level life experience that I will appreciate forever!…read more Every staff person and volunteer was so kind, positive, informative, and just overall wonderful. They patiently explained everything to us, including why certain rules are in place. Please take their rules seriously. They sent some people away because they had on shorts which is not allowed. The tour was not a lot of walking in terms of distance, but you get a little dirty and need to watch your step at certain points. You should bring a metal water bottle that will keep water cold while it's in your car. We were not far from the cars and there was a break so you will have easy access to water/other things in your car. The great part about no cellphones is that everyone stays present and enjoys the moment. You can bring a disposable camera (they also sell in the gift shop if you forget). The wolves were so friendly & playful. The staff/volunteers were also very attentive and provided assistance to ensure everyone felt comfortable when a wolf approached them. There is so much attention to detail to make sure everyone (including the wolves) is safe, learns, and has fun. There is an opportunity at the end to have staff take a few photos of you with a wolf on your phone. So if you don't have a disposable camera, you'll have an opportunity to get a few photos. Wolves are my favorite animal. I learned so much. I have even more love for wolves now and a deep appreciation for the staff/volunteers who take care of them at Seacrest. I hope to find my way back for another visit one day.
