Capybara Encounter in St. Augustine

Visitors consistently rave about the hands-on animal encounters here, with the capybaras stealing hearts left and right. Staff members like Ashley, Dakota, and Simone get enthusiastic shoutouts for being knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about the animals. The facility maintains high cleanliness standards, and guests appreciate how well-cared-for all the creatures appear. Beyond the star capybaras, you'll also meet lionhead bunnies, ferrets, and guinea pigs during the fuller experience packages. The intimate group sizes create meaningful interactions where you can feed and pet the animals without feeling rushed. Many visitors mention booking the "Capys and more" option to maximize their time with all the residents. One helpful tip: arrive about 30 minutes early to enjoy the animals in the waiting area, and expect some parking challenges since the lot fills quickly. Just note this isn't an actual café serving food or drinks despite the name. The experience runs about 30 minutes and appeals equally to kids and adults, with several guests describing it as dream-come-true territory for animal lovers.
