About
Free-Flight Aviary is a zoo in Tampa that brings together wildlife viewing, hands-on animal experiences, and water play in one visit. The facility includes the David A. Straz, Jr. Manatee Critical Care Center, where you can see manatees alongside otters, jellies, reptiles, and amphibians in the Florida Waters area. Families can cool off at the Billabong Splash Pad in the Australia section or head to Roaring Springs for water attractions. The aviary offers Signature Encounters and Behind-the-Scenes Tours for visitors who want closer interaction with animals, plus a Giraffe Encounter open to all ages and an in-water stingray experience. Throughout the year, the zoo hosts seasonal events like Creatures of the Night and Christmas in the Wild.
