Terra Natura Benidorm is a magical world for both kids and adults from around the globe. Located less than 15 minutes by car from Levante Beach (one of the most famous beaches in Spain), this zoo is a fantastic way to complement your holiday with educational moments that are also incredibly fun! Here’s everything you need to know so you can simply focus on enjoying your time surrounded by nature at Terra Natura Benidorm.
This beautiful wildlife park spans 320,000 square metres of animal-filled terrain. It’s divided into four zones: Pangea, America, Asia, and Europe, where you and your family can observe around 1,500 animals from nearly 200 species. But it’s not just about seeing animals — it’s about enjoying immersive experiences that everyone will love. From the Mermaid School to Night Safaris, there are options for all tastes and ages.
Animal welfare and wildlife conservation are two of the main goals of this zoo.
Terra Natura Benidorm offers educational activities (for both children and adults) aimed at promoting respect for nature and raising awareness about environmental and animal threats. The result is an “immersive zoo” experience, bringing you closer to wildlife.
Esto se ve reforzado por barreras invisibles que mantienen a personas y animales a una distancia segura para todos.
On Tuesdays and Saturdays, from 9:30 PM to 11:30 PM, you can take part in an incredible experience that lets visitors witness the wild nightlife of the animals. Many of Terra Natura Benidorm’s animals sleep during the day, meaning they’re much more active at night. This guided tour offers a deeper encounter with nature. The Night Safari costs €20 per person and lasts 120 minutes.
Terra Natura Benidorm is also a must-visit for reptile lovers! With Discovery Reptiles, you’ll enjoy an interactive and educational experience to discover a variety of reptiles and arthropods. See bullfrogs weighing over a kilo, tarantulas, spiders, albino pythons, double-crested basilisks, and even watch panther chameleons feed on tiny insects! The show starts at 3:15 PM, lasts 30 minutes, and costs €25 per person.
The largest animals at Terra Natura Benidorm can be seen on a guided tour at 2:15 PM, available only on Fridays and Sundays — so make sure to plan your visit on these days if you love pachyderms! You’ll learn about their habits and see how they’re cared for during this 30-minute experience. The price? €20 per person.
Benidorm Paraíso apartments are ideal for a unique holiday with family or as a couple, perfect for those seeking rest and tranquility in Benidorm’s residential center.
Have you ever dreamed of being a mermaid? Your kids probably have! Now they can live that dream by swimming with a monofin in this family-friendly experience! The cost ranges from €34 to €36 per person, and it lasts 45 minutes.
You’ll need to recharge after all the fun shows and animal encounters! Take a break and grab a snack at the Salamandra Bar by Jaspe, or enjoy an XL burger at the Terraceratops Restaurant. Before you leave, stop by the photo shop to take home the perfect souvenir from your visit. There’s also a store with everything you need for the ideal experience: sunscreen, hats and caps, sweatshirts, postcards, toys, stuffed animals, and a special sweets counter.
