In the middle of the Côte de Beauté and the beaches of Charente-Maritime…
Between Bordeaux and La Rochelle, a few dunes from Royan is an oasis of amazing encounters and discoveries with animals from all continents - a place where the imagination of one man transformed a pine forest into a jungle book… A unique place where a love of animals was transformed into a Noah's Ark. Over the 14 hectares of the most renowned zoo park in France and one of the most interesting in Europe, meet the 1600 animals in the company of the squire, Claude Caillé.
The park shops offer souvenirs, films, photos, drinks, ice cream and fast food.
Please note: Dogs are not allowed in the Zoo de la Palmyre, even on a lead. Thank you for your comprehension.
