4.0 of 5 stars. This zoo is pretty cool. Caveat here is I haven't been to many zoos. I didn't expect to enjoy this much, but thought I'd just check it out since it's so close to our hotel. We had an awesome time...

2.0 of 5 stars. Small, dinky zoo. I think it took us 2 hours to walk around the entire place. It's close to the ocean so you get the sea breeze as you look at animals, so I guess that's where the 2 stars come from....
