"A fantastic conservation zoo focused on the diversity of African wildlife."
Overview
Set in 100 acres of dramatic parkland in Kessingland, a few miles from Beccles towards the coast, Africa Alive! is one of Suffolk’s most exotic animal wildlife parks. Here you can explore the sights and sounds of Africa, see giraffes, rhinos, cheetah and hyenas, and get a bird’s-eye view of the lion enclosure. Attractions include daily feeding, talks and animal encounter sessions, a magnificent bird of prey display and a free journey round the park in a jeep.

About the area
Suffolk is Constable country, where the county’s crumbling, time-ravaged coastline spreads itself under wide skies to convey a wonderful sense of remoteness and solitude. Highly evocative and atmospheric, this is where rivers wind lazily to the sea and notorious 18th-century smugglers hid from the excise men.
