Honolulu Zoo

The Honolulu Zoo, a sprawling 42-acre expanse in Kapiʻolani Park near Waikiki Beach, is a vibrant sanctuary for over 900 species, including many that are unique to Hawaii. Established in the early 20th century, the zoo is known for its morning symphony of white-handed gibbons, a sound familiar to local surfers. Visitors can explore a diverse array of animals and plants, engage in daily zookeeper talks, and participate in interactive experiences such as the petting zoo and animal feedings. The zoo offers a rich and educational experience, immersing visitors in the natural world.
