Miami Wilds, an eco-sensitive project at the front door of Zoo Miami, is made up of a best-in-class water park, family-friendly lodge hotel, and a number of small unique retail shops and restaurants. Miami Wilds will be linked to Zoo Miami and the heritage Gold Coast Railroad and Miami Military Museums by a walkable learning connector. Sensitive to nearby natural areas, the 27.5 acre Miami Wilds project, located on public land adjacent to Zoo Miami, is outside of environmentally protected areas.
