Summer overnights offer a unique opportunity for participants to sleep under the stars or sea (lions), without tents, weather permitting. Under the Sea-lion overnights sleep inside the Sea Lion Sound tunnel. All overnights include an evening snack, guided night hike around Zoo grounds, continental breakfast and a souvenir cup.
Is a lion really the king of the jungle? Come spend an adventurous evening at the Zoo to find this out and much more. Your night will be filled with fun activities focused on the varied landscapes, animals and cultures that fill the huge continent of Africa. A walking safari through the Zoo will give you a closer look at how you can help save animals and their natural habitats. So come see how far our light reaches! Join us for a roaring good time!
Join us for this amazing opportunity to sleep inside the Sea Lion Sound tunnel! We will explore some of our aquatic life at the Zoo by visiting Stingrays at Caribbean Cove and the Herpetarium. We will end the night by laying out sleeping bags inside the tunnel. You will awake under the sea and, hopefully, under a sea lion!
You can schedule your own private group overnight during the summer on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday evenings. When you schedule your own overnight, we use the themes that we are currently offering, but will tailor them to meet your needs. Whether it’s for a mixed-scout group, a family group or a summer camp, we have an overnight for you.
