Bioparc Fuengirola Zoo – Marbella:

Bioparc Fuengirola has been around for a while. Originally built as a Zoo in the 1970’s, it was not a pleasant place for the animals.

In 1998, Rain Forest took over the zoo. They set out to completely redesign and expand the zoo. Their aim was to create the latest “full-immersion zoo” concept recreating the tropical forests of Madagascar, Equatorial Africa and Southeast Asia.

The new Fuengirola Zoo was opened in 2001 and set new standards for other zoos in Europe to follow. It is now called the Bioparc Fuengirola. Most importantly they have improved the living standards for the animals, which are now very high. This also makes it a more pleasant experience for visitors.

The Bioparc is now flourishing, with over 140 species represented. There are a total of over 1,300 individual animals, therefore seemingly happy in their newly created environments. The variety of animals is huge including birds, mammals including the gorilla, hippopotamus, leopard and tiger, reptiles including the crocodile and python They also now have many fish species.

The Biopark aims not only to fascinate but also to teach and provides educational tours for adults and children.

There is also a restaurant on site

For the children there is a huge playground next door most importantly this keeps them entertained.

Also in the months of July and August, the Bioparc stays open till midnight allowing people to explore the park and its residents at night time. This is the perfect way to end an evening.
