Guests planning to park in the Zoo’s parking lot need to purchase a parking voucher on site on the day of your visit.
Parking can be paid for three ways once you arrive at the Zoo.
1. At the ticket office windows when you arrive or when you leave
2. At the Little Puffer Train station (11am-4:30pm)
3. Scan the QR code on posters throughout the Zoo, pay online and retrieve an exit pass at the Gatehouse on your way out
Please note, paid parking is available on a first come, first serve basis. There is free parking on the street along Sloat Boulevard.
