Paignton Zoo is home to thousands of animals and plants, there’s a whole world to explore.

Come face to face with the free-swinging lemurs of lemur Wood, get up close with the monkeys of Monkey Heights and greet the gorillas in their nests.

There’s just so much to do, take in the Feathered Feats bird show, get your face painted, join the keepers for a fun talk, catch the animals at feeding time or let the train take the strain with a trip around Gibbon Island Lake.

After the miniature train ride, there are plenty of indoor and outdoor playareas where the kids can let off steam and then refuel at our restaurant or one of our snack bars.

Restaurant, snack bars and ice-cream kiosks. Picnic area and sandwich room

Salads, baked potatoes, sandwiches. All dietary requirements catered for on request

Full range from pocket monkey souvenirs to fair trade products, cuddly toys and collectibles.

One mile from Paignton town centre. Follow the brown elephant signs from the major routes into Paignton.

Paignton Zoo is an all day attraction, so leave plenty of time to see and do everything.

The zoo is accessible, but there are some steep hills, so be prepared!
