Jacksonville Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

Encountering 🦒 at Jacksonville zoo

Beautiful day at the zoo! ##summerbreak Jax zoo is located near the International Airport of Jacksonville- it is mostly opened everyday and they sell yearly pass or single tickets - the price of a ticket is around 25 dollars per person. Parking is definitely not an issue since there is a big parking and children under 2 years are free. It usually opens around 9am and closes at 5pm. my favorite time of the year to go to the zoo is during winter time since it is not really hot outside and they usually have some events going on especially during Christmas time I believe they lights up the light and the whole zoo is illuminated. You can feed the 🦒 and spend some time playing with them as long as you don’t touch them, they are really fun and friendly.
