Bioparc Fuengirola — Attraction in Fuengirola

We arrived at 12 p.m. and had a pleasant 10-minute wait to purchase tickets. If we had pre-purchased, we would have had no wait. We had a wonderful 3 hours at the best zoo (in my opinion). Bioparc is a well-laid-out and themed zoo. It felt like we were wandering through the real environment with the animals.

Immediately after arriving, we stopped at the cafe at the entrance for coffee and muffins. They were nice and reasonably priced. You don’t expect amazing quality at this type of establishment, but they were adequate.

The zoo has a lot to offer, although there aren’t many large animals. The exhibits are themed to feel good as well as welcoming to the animals. All the animals looked healthy and happy.

As soon as you enter, you’re immersed in their world. I love how the zoo is themed in a blend of the human world and animal world. It’s very immersive, and every moment felt like an adventure. We watched an animal show in the amphitheater, which was the best animal show I’ve ever seen. It had a story to follow and demonstrated the animals in a lovely natural way.

There are plenty of food options, but we waited a solid 30 minutes to order food at 3 p.m. The food was good and reasonably priced.

We saw everything and really enjoyed a leisurely look around in 3 hours. We could have spent more time, but I think 2 hours would have been enough if we were in a rush. I could have easily spent up to 4 or 5 hours...

We had an amazing day at Bioparc Fuengirola with our children. It’s an experience we will never forget! Highlights: • The setting is beautiful and immersive, with lush vegetation that makes you feel like you’re walking through a real jungle. • The animals are very close to visitors, with no visible cages, which allows for a unique and respectful observation. • The park is clean, well-maintained, and easy to navigate, even with young children. • The educational activities and keeper presentations are well-designed and engaging for kids. • We especially loved the free-roaming lemurs, the majestic gorillas, and the impressive giant baobab. • The African group’s night show was fantastic – lively, festive, and a great surprise for the whole family! • We also had the chance to enjoy the night tour, which was a magical experience and gave us a different perspective on the animals. • Thanks to our special ticket, we were allowed to exit and return after 7:30 PM to enjoy the evening shows — a real bonus! Point to consider: • The entrance fee may seem a bit high, but the quality of the experience makes it well worth it. In short, it’s a perfect family activity — fun, educational, and respectful of wildlife. My kids are still talking about it! The African performance and night visit made it even more special. I highly recommend this park to anyone visiting the...

It takes a long time to get in. Only 1 lady selling tickets with a big queue. You get to watch three other staff members chatting and moving boxes around the shop while you wait. Price is 29.50 Euro for adults and children over 10. Price 22 Euro for children 9 and under. Which is steep for the overall size of the zoo (it takes around 2 hours to get around, slowly). Children aged only 10 and over paying adult price for entry is mean. Immediately after entry you get asked if you'd like to donate more money (after just paying over 150 Euro for your family to get entry into a small zoo). No food allowed to be brought into the zoo for protection of the animals. It is taken off you and put in a locker which is free. Don't worry because you can buy crisps from a vending machine 5 metres inside the park (because if you buy from a vending machine no one will feed that food to the animals). Once you are in the zoo the experience is good. There is an Indiana Jones ancient ruins theme. Gardens well maintained. Lots of animals to see. Nice cafe for drinks and food. Reference the price, if you are local you can change your entry to a yearly membership, which I'm sure is great value for the locals. Underground parking next door was reasonable around 5 Euro for 3 hours (50% discount voucher for parking...
