Dublin Zoo

Thirty acres of family fun

Phoenix Park
Cunningham Road
Dublin
Ireland
+353 1 677 1425
http://www.dublinzoo.ie/

More than 235 species of wild animals and exotic birds inhabit Dublin Zoo, a vast expanse within Phoenix Park. Created in 1830 and recently restored and extended, this zoo is the third-oldest in the world, with London and Paris as "big siblings". The thirty acres provide lots of treats for the family, including a pet's corner and new attractions such as City Farm, Monkey Island and Fringes of the Arctic. The train ride around the zoo is also fun and a welcome rest for weary legs! Refreshments are available in the restaurant and coffee shop, while a variety of cuddly toys can be found in the gift shop. Admission: adults EUR12.50: students EUR10: children 3-16 years EUR8: family passes from EUR35.

National Sea Life Centre

Suburban aquarium Strand Road
Bray Seafront
Dublin, Co. Wicklow
Ireland
+353 1 286 6939
http://www.sealifeeurope.com/i... The National Sea Life Centre lies in the seaside town of Bray, a 15 minute DART ride south of the city. It is a well-designed and slick operation, with the emphasis very much on the commercial. Despite this, however, the centre certainly has a hand in the conservation of the marine life to be found off Ireland's shores. This is an excellent outing for children, combining educational interactive displays and fun in a pleasant seaside setting.
