First time there. Small but very nice. They have a cool variety of animals, pleasant foliage, and ocean views. We capped off our day by taking the train, it was great. Everyone was very friendly. One keeper stopped to give an impromptu talk about rhino hornbills and their mating practices.

It's a pretty cheap admission for what you get. Also I almost walked out with one of each shirt and a couple hundred dollars of debt.

And beware: they have Dippin Dots which is too delicious to describe and will inexplicably entice you to eat several pounds of it.
