Nestled in between Diamond Head and Waikiki, the Honolulu Zoo attracts more than 700,000 visitors each year. Established in 1817, it is the only zoo in the USA that received a royalty grant from King David Kalakaua, who then allowed some 300 acres of land to be developed as part of Kapiolani Park. Today, Honolulu Zoo is home to more than a thousand animals, with major emphasis on the Pacific eco-system.
General admission is $13. Open daily between 9:00am- 4:30pmClick images to enlarge
