Selwo Marina Benalmadena
This is one of the most ambitious projects become truth in Benalmadena. Selwo Marina is the first dolphin and penguin park in Andalusia. This enclosure has two hectares approxilametly and there, we can see the most representative landscapes and animals of South America. The entrance square and gate known as Placita de las Americas is a wide area to rest and taste the gastronomy. In the beginning of the route we will see a rocky cove with a Caribbean atmosphere. After that, there is a little deep lake. Beaches separated by rocks and tropical flora settled in islands is in the way to a large pool where the kings of Selwo Marine live: dolphins. They are who make visitors to stand up after their runs, jumps and gambols. After the dolphin family performance, we will see sea lions clapping dancing and playing with a ball. Do not forget the funny songs and dancing of our friendly pirates before the show. We will laugh a lot with them.
The spectacle goes on. The show of exotic bird surprises the visitor with flights and acrobatics full of colour and charm. Macaws and toucans will land in the audience. The exotic birds enclosure is known as Hondonada and is located in the children play area. Slides, platforms, water games, and other activities are spread along 400 metres square for children fun.
The Patagonian station will freeze us with the excitement produced by the wonderful landscapes of the first penguin park in the Iberian Peninsula. That environment reproduces precisely the natural atmosphere where those animals live. We can observe the different activities of penguins in or out the water thanks to features of its facilities.
Once we have finish the visit to Selwo Marina, we will not leave without a souvenir, for that purpose there is a gift shop in the same square.
