The Central Coast Zoo (formerly the Charles Paddock Zoo) is home to approximately 100 species from around the world and is the only zoo on the Central Coast accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA). As part of AZA, our animals are part of globally managed conservation programs to preserve species and their wild habitats. We invite you to relax, learn, and connect with the Zoo’s wildlife in a safe and respectful setting.
