Fota Wildlife Park

Nature & Animals

Fota Wildlife Park sits on 100 acres on Fota Island near Cork Harbour, and unlike a traditional zoo, most enclosures use open, moated habitats so animals like Indian rhinos, cheetahs and giraffes roam in view without bars between them and visitors. It has run long-established international breeding programmes for endangered species for decades and opened an Education, Conservation and Research Centre in late 2023 to expand that work. A Panoramic Wheel gives an aerial view over the park and Cork Harbour, and the free tour train and Irish Rail-adjacent entrance make it an easy day trip without a car. Families can refuel at the Drey Café or Oasis Café, browse the Serengeti Gift Store, and make use of picnic areas, water fountains and free wheelchairs for visitors who need them. It has repeatedly been voted Munster's best family day out and ranked among Europe's top zoos and animal parks by TripAdvisor reviewers. With seasonal opening hours that stretch into early evening in summer, it rewards a slow wander rather than a rushed visit, and school and group bookings are catered for separately from general admission.

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday · Open daily from 9:30am year-round; closing time and last entry vary seasonally (e.g. 6:00pm in summer with 4:30pm last entry, down to 4:30pm with 3:00pm last entry in winter). Closed 24-26 December. · EUR 14.0
