RELAXED MORNING

With the continuation of our DEAI pledges, we are pleased to announce our next Relaxed Morning on Wednesday 2nd April 2025. The Park will be open from 10am, for guests who would like to explore the Safari Walk area with limited stimulation.

Music will be turned off, as will any immersive sounds around the rest of our Safari Walk areas, until 12pm.
PLEASE NOTE: There is a private sea lion session taking place between 10.15 - 10.35am, the keepers will be on the speaker system and may be heard outside the theatre.

We will also be opening our Crafty Cubs Corner, where guests can take part in some colouring activities, explore sensory boxes or take advantage of the quiet space, for any guests who feel like they may need a break from the fun from 10am - 4pm.

We recommend guests visiting on this day visit the Safari Walk first, to take advantage of the relaxed atmosphere, then visit the Safari Drive afterwards by choosing a later time slot. Please note, the Safari Drive closes at 12:30pm.

Ear defenders are available to pick up from our Main Reception on the day. We require a £5 returnable cash deposit per set.

- Penguin Cove
- Creepy Crawlies
- Aquarium
- Reptile World
- Red Panda Retreat
- Marmoset Mischief
