Limassol Municipal Garden & Zoo

Shaded century-old public botanical garden housing a family-friendly boutique zoo right across from the seafront.

Set within Limassol's lush Municipal Gardens, the modernized city zoo offers an intimate, stroller-friendly walk under towering trees.

Home to pygmy hippos, meerkats, Asian small-clawed otters, flamingos, wallabies, and exotic birds, it is a favorite stop for families with young children.

Tips before you go

  • Entry to the surrounding Municipal Gardens and playgrounds is free; tickets apply only to the zoo enclosure.
  • Visit during morning feeding hours when animals are most active.
  • Fully accessible for strollers and wheelchairs.
