Now, while parking is free, there's a catch (there's always a catch, isn't there?). The zoo's popularity means parking spots can fill up fast, especially on weekends and holidays. So, here are some pro-tips to snag that prime spot:
Tip: Reread the opening if you feel lost.
- Arrive early: Be the zoo-going early bird who gets the worm... or, in this case, the closest parking space.
- Embrace the adventure: Don't be afraid to park a bit farther out. It's a great excuse to stretch your legs and soak up the beautiful Florida sunshine (and maybe pretend you're on a safari navigating the wilderness... okay, maybe not).
- Channel your inner zen: If the lot is packed, take a deep breath and remember, you're about to see some amazing animals! Besides, a little extra waiting is a small price to pay for free parking.
