Zoological Attractions Open Year-Round in San Antonio, TX
While many of the nation’s theme parks and zoological exhibits close their doors during the winter months the city of San Antonio presents travelers a relatively warm setting with multiple zoological attractions to help you explore the great outdoors during your visit to the big city. From the underwater magic of SeaWorld to the unique free range setting of the Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch, these are just a couple ideas to help you get started in planning your winter vacation!
Whether you’re looking for a traditional theme park experience complete with rides and dining or a unique glimpse into the wonders of the deep, SeaWorld can offer both while visiting San Antonio. A variety of exhibits and live shows will introduce visitors the beauty and intelligence of animals such as whales, dolphins and sharks while coaster options including The Great White and Steel Eel safely demonstrate the fury of their namesakes. Part zoo and part theme park, SeaWorld offers complete fun during your next stop in Texas.
Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch
At Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch travelers will discover a unique paradise of over 50 different animal species roaming wild. You’ll be able to drive through the zoo in your own vehicle, gaining up close views as antelope, buffalo and more walk right up to your windows! For a unique zoo experience schedule the Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch into your next San Antonio vacation.

I’ve always wanted to go through a drive through Zoo. Seems like a good idea in cold weather you can roll the windows up keep warm, while still enjoying the animals. Next time I’m in San Antonio I will totally consider dropping by.
I am looking forward to visiting San Antonio this summer with my little sister.
We are going to be visitng Sea world for the very first time ever,
I am hoping that we will get to feed the dolophins. or at least watch some tricks like they
do in the movies. We are also looking forward to visititng the wildlife ranch.
Some of the tours that you offer look great we will be sure to take one while there.
The Ripleys believe it or not museum looks like it could be alot of fun.
I have been to sea world several times. once in San Antonio, twice in Ohio. i have had a blast everytime i went there. my favorate was the seal show’s if you sit close enough the can spit watter on you. when i went the the location in ohio it rained most of the time but that didnt really change how much fun i had. we jsut bought rain bonchos and wore those around. i would recomend this to anyone with small children. it is a great place to see animals and learn all sorts of things. its a very educational place.
I have visited Sea World San Antonio several times already. The first time I only gave myself one day to visit the park which wasn’t enough. To fully explore the park you definitely need two days to do everything. There is so much to do and see once you are there that with only one day you find yourself rushing to do everything. My favorite show would have to be Shamoo performing along with the dolphin acrobats. We had a blast everytime and I am looking to go back some more soon.
One thing I recommend is to dress cool because it gets very hot during the summer months but its South Texas so no matter when you go it will alwasy be hot, unless its raining then you get a break.
I havent been here since I was a kid but I would love to visit it again, the dolphin show was amazing.
The only SeaWorld I have been to is the one in San Diego. It was great! I had the opportunity to ride an Asian Elephant, it was a fun experience. I sat in the front row of the dolphin/whale show and it was very wet, and salty! I would love to go to SeaWorld in San Antonion, seeing as how I live a little closer now. Once I get the chance to visit, im sure I’ll attend more than just one day. I would definetly allow yourself 2 days to see everything in the park.
Sea World parks are a great place to take your family! They have so many different animals to watch and learn about it is amazing. The dolphin shows are spectacular! There is so much to do that I had to come back another day. The water rides were great! I would love to go back!
I have always wanted to go to Sea World. It is really cool that they mix a zoo and a theme park all in one. I can’t wait to go some day.
