The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and cheerful. The animals are rescues and wouldn't survive if the sanctuary didn't take them in. Visit and learn. A little tip is to bring some healthy snacks from home to feed the animals and don't forget to have your picture taken holding an alligator.

I have returned twice with out of town visitors and local friends. The staff is wonderful and committed to caring for and loving their primate friends :)

Wonderful experience visiting these rescued primates. This private facility is not a zoo, rather a safe harbor for victimized primates. There are many varieties to see, from Pongo the gigantic orangutang to lemurs to chipanzees, to spider monkeys. There's also a handful of reptiles. A small, 2 year old alligator is available to safely pet if you can get it included in your price. Not many of the animals were interested in the $1 snack bags we bought because they were getting living spaces cleaned and fed lunch while we were there. This place is perfect for a 1-2 hour poke-along visit with out of town guests. Make sure you talk with the care givers - they'll help you understand the story behind the animals.

About Suncoast Primate Sanctuary
Staffed by a corps of chimp-loving volunteers working alongside veterinarians, the nonprofit Suncoast Primate Sanctuary provides a safe haven for more than 100 rescued animals. Chimpanzees and monkeys swing freely in their enclosures, living out their days after being moved from other environments, including zoos, sanctuaries, and research centers, or retiring from the film industry as animal actors and studio executives. During public hours, children and adults can wander among the menagerie to feed the monkeys and meet other critters such as orangutans, macaws, lemurs, and alligators.
