About Honolulu Zoo

The Honolulu Zoo sits on 42 acres at the north end of Queen Kapiolani Park in Waikiki. Its habitats hold more than 1,230 animals, from black rhinoceros and reticulated giraffes on the African Savanna to the Reptile Complex and Bird Sanctuary. You can also stroll the Orchid Garden and bring kids to the hands-on Keiki Zoo, and the zoo works to conserve native species such as the nene, Hawaii's state bird.
