March 25, 2025 – For the sixth year, Brevard Zoo has been included in the 10Best Reader’s Choice Awards, voted as the 6th Best Zoo in the US with the 4th Best Membership Program.

A panel of experts worked with 10Best’s editorial team to choose the nominees for each category, and the top 10 winners are decided by popular vote.

Here’s what USA TODAY had to say about Brevard Zoo:

No. 6: Best Zoo: Home to more than 800 animals, the AZA-accredited Brevard Zoo takes the zoo-going experience to adventurous new levels. Guests can walk through the canopy above South American jungle habitats, or kayak through an Africa-like savanna or restored Florida wetland.

No. 4: Best Zoo Membership: Brevard Zoo’s membership is your pass to wild times with unlimited visits, early admission, and reduced admission to more than 120 other zoos and aquariums.


Enjoy discounted kayak tours, select animal encounters, and Treetop Trek Adventures, as well as discounts on merchandise and concessions.


If you add the Plus Plan to your membership, you can bring one guest per visit for free. Your membership support enables the zoo to continue their vital animal wellbeing, conservation, and education programs.

According to the Brevard Zoo’s website, “Our members’ support enables us to continue to serve our community with vital animal, conservation and education programs. We aim to show our appreciation with a variety of benefits.”

We are so lucky to have such a beautiful zoo right here in Viera. If you haven’t been for a visit, here’s your opportunity. You are bound to have a wild time.
