Mayaguez attractions and sightseeing

Mayaguez Zoo - The zoo is managed by the Compañia of Parques Nacionales. The zoo contains a nice selection of animals which are divided into two groups which are the African Forest and the African Savannah. The zoo was recently renovated and it is very well kept. It is almost like being at a tropical garden or jungle. One of my favorite features of the zoo is the bird sanctuary where you go into a open outside room with a netting ceiling where colorful tropical birds and parrots are free to fly and hang out with you. Hours - The zoo is open Wednesday - Sunday from 8:30am - 4:00pm How to get there Take Route 108 past the University, then turn right at the sign for the zoo. Following are some photos of the beautiful animals at the Mayaguez Zoo Watch the pedestrians, you may see friendly iguanas walking by seeking for a cool shaded spot at the zoo. Enjoy your photo tour at the Zoo.

University of Puerto Rico - The Mayaguez Campus is the college of Arts and Sciences. It has a renowned engineering school with companies recruiting graduates from the mainland United States.
