[2025 Pengerang Attraction] Travel Guide for Desaru Mini Zoo (Updated May)

#outdooradventures During our trip to Desaru, we decided to visit the Desaru Mini Zoo for a little outdoor adventure. It’s a small but charming zoo, perfect for a casual day out. The place is surrounded by greenery, giving it a relaxing vibe. As I walked around, I saw a variety of animals like horses, rabbits, deer, alpacas, fishes and even ostriches. You can get up close and personal with some of the animals, and there’s even an option to feed them, which kids especially enjoy. It’s not a big place, so it doesn’t take too long to explore, but it’s a fun and peaceful spot if you’re looking to enjoy nature and see some friendly animals up close. If you're feeling adventurous, you’ve got to try the ATV ride! It's a good way to add some thrill to your day. The ride could be bumpy but super fun, with muddy paths and small hills that made the experience exciting.

This Mini Zoo is just located at Yard and co nearby. After Enjoying brunch , you may come to this place and bring your kids to enjoy feeding pets and also petting pets . This mini zoo has a variety of animals such as Ostrich, fish, cow, Lamb, chicken, Rabbit and more. Be careful of the ostrich when you feed, they are quite aggressive and will use their mouth to poke humans. Kids most enjoy the chick 🐥 they can carry and petting them. But iIrecommend going after 3pm -4pm because the weather is super hot and almost melting. 🏖️Ambiance/Facilities:Nice design and look stunning. 💞Reasons to Recommend:Kids will love it. Desaru Mini Zoo 📍Address: 103-A, Jalan Damai 10, Kampung Sungai Kapal, 81620 Pengerang, Johor operating hour:9 am -7 pm. #awesomepic #couplestrip #deliciousfood #desarubeach #zoo

Day Trip to Desaru Mini Zoo. 1.5 hr drive away from Jb custom, location is so unexpected. Really a small zoo, or I should say is a Farm. But kid enjoy a lot. Lots of exotic animals but I do feel bad for the horses/donkeys as their legs were tied to the fences and poles. Very minimal movement allowed. I had an awesome time here! The place is super clean and the animals are well cared for and the staff are friendly and chill. The petting area was a blast, especially for the kids. the variety of animal in this mini zoo. Service were excellent. Staff were stationed at the entrance to guide cars entering the premises to find a carpark lot. There was an ultraman welcoming visitors at the door as well. The mini zoo was considered well maintained. There was no major smell like some of the animal farms I had previously visited. Rm20 entrance fee was a bit pricey, but I think considering the maintenence and amenities it was quite reasonable. I hope staff could be better trained to care for the animals. I saw young children carried the chicks and forcefully threw them but the staff didn't attempt to stop these behaviour. Parents had a role to play as well. I had a good experience at the mini zoo. #minizoo #exotic #animalsfarm #Exoticanimals #zoo #experiences
