Limassol Zoo, zoo in Cyprus
Limassol Zoo is a small zoo within the Municipal Park that borders the coast, featuring transparent enclosures for animals including flamingos, wallabies, emus, antelopes, llamas, and reptiles. The grounds include shaded walkways, benches, a children's playground, and the Flamingo Cafe overlooking the bird aviary.
The zoo underwent significant modernization in 2012, gaining contemporary facilities with transparent enclosures that improved animal viewing. This renovation established it as a popular family destination in the city with improved accessibility and comfort.
The zoo sits in the heart of Limassol as a place where families gather to spend time together and connect with animals. The Flamingo Cafe overlooking the pink birds reflects the relaxed way locals and visitors use this space to unwind.
The zoo is located near the Municipal Gallery bus stop on Vyronos Avenue and is accessible by public transport including bus 30, with the entrance found within the park rather than directly from the street. Walking through all enclosures takes about 30 minutes, though visits last longer when traveling with children who want to spend time watching the animals.
Visitors can touch certain animals at the zoo, including meerkats and kangaroos, making the experience more personal than at larger facilities. This closeness to the animals creates a memorable moment for children and gives the visit a special quality.
