Item Description

The Jungle Comes Alive! It's even better than you can remember! Up close animal interactions!

Miami’s #1 family attraction, Jungle Island is located in the heart of the city, between downtown and South Beach. Building upon the rich tradition Parrot Jungle began in 1936, today’s Jungle Island is home to the world's rarest and most incredible animals, including rare white tigers and a white lion; Mama Cass, the only tame Cassowary on the planet; the liger, who holds the Guinness Book of World Records title as the World’s Largest Cat; and Peanut and Pumpkin, only the third set of Orangutan twins to be born in captivity. Guests participate in hands-on interactions with fascinating animals, marvel at the engaging animal shows and presentations, and are amazed by the park's breathtaking landscapes and vistas. Guests can also go behind the scenes on Jungle Island with an exclusive VIP Safari Tour. For additional information, please visit www.jungleisland.com. Lemur Experience Enjoy an experience of a lifetime! Jungle Island invites you to discover a truly rare opportunity to interact with our stunning lemurs. During the interaction, you’ll get to hold and play with these charming little rascals. You’ll also learn all about these Madagascan beauties from our trained experts.

Jungle Island began its history in 1936 as Parrot Jungle. Created by Franz Scherr with the idea of an attraction where birds could “fly free”, Parrot Jungle was originally located in south Miami and was known primarily its wide array of exotic birds including Pinky, the high-wire bicycle riding cockatoo, and our world-famous pink flamingos who have been prominently featured in the opening credits of television’s Miami Vice.

The park has evolved over the years under the direction of its current owners who purchased the park in 1988. After Hurricane Andrew, the owners set their sights on continuing to develop the park on Watson Island. After construction was completed in 2003, the Watson Island location opened for business as Parrot Jungle Island.

The evolution of the Jungle has led to the renaming of the park as Jungle Island to better encompass the wide variety of animals, plants and activities available.

Jungle Island lives up to its name with unusual flora, from the extraordinary African sausage tree to a collection of rare cycads. Visitors to Jungle Island can stroll along the 1.35 miles of winding, covered trails while enjoying the many special exhibits, attractions and tours that are available. As Miami’s brightest and most unique destination, Jungle Island continues to delight the thousands of people who visit Miami each year.
