The best way to enjoy your day is at the San Antonio Zoo, where they bring exotic wildlife from all around the world directly to you. Make your zoo visit an adventure as you get the chance to watch the elephants play, listen to the hyenas laugh, and take in the sights of the lions, tigers, bears, kangaroos, hippos, and flamingos, to name a few. Make sure you stop by the giraffe enclosures and reach up to feed them right out of your hands.
Fiesta San Antonio is a one-parade event to honor the memory of the heroes of the Alamo and the Battle of San Jacinto. This historic commemoration has taken place for more than a century and has grown into a celebration where San Antonio's rich and diverse cultures are known as the nation's premier festival.
Drive out to Son's Island, a gorgeous, tropical-inspired, three-and-a-half acre island with open-air lakeside Hawaiian cabanas, where you can kayak, paddleboard, swim and wade, fish, barbecue, water slide, and play beach volleyball. Your breathtaking entry includes a drive across a wooden bridge surrounding you with large cypress and pecan trees outlining the perimeter of 4,000 feet of lakefront property. Son’s Island also offers glamping, where you can spend a night under the stars in a luxurious tent furnished with two queen-sized beds, fans, and lanterns.
