Selwo Aventura Estepona
This huge open-air enclosure of more than 40 hectares is located in the eastern part of Estepona, almost bordering Marbella.
Combining the concept of an immersive zoo for visitors with a wide range of activities and even the possibility of staying overnight in the park, it is an interesting offer just a few kilometres from the coast in one of the best areas of the Costa del Sol.
Selwo Estepona consists of three large habitat areas with lush tropical and subtropical vegetation, lakes with a huge variety of animals such as cheetahs, gazelles, pandas, gibbons, flamingos, hyenas, macaws and a mini farm for the little ones. There are also lemurs, lynxes, birds and last but not least the large African mammals such as lions, elephants, giraffes, hippopotamuses, rhinos and zebras, wildebeest and impala.
The park also offers the possibility to enjoy exciting adventures such as a zip line, trampolines, archery, a 65-metre long and 15-metre-high suspension bridge or an off-road safari.
An additional attraction is the possibility to stay in the park and enjoy a stay in the middle of nature.

Selwo Marina Benalmadena
Selwo Marina is a park dedicated mainly to marine fauna. It is located in the centre of Benalmadena, next to the Parque de la Paloma and 500 metres from the seafront promenade.
Therefore, due to its location, it is ideal for a family visit, as it can be easily reached on foot. We also recommend a visit to the Parque de la Paloma, a leafy and charming park with a pond and several children’s areas, which invites you to take a walk or have a picnic. The park is notable for its many animals in semi-freedom that can be seen at close quarters, ideal for children. There is also a bar for refreshments.
In Selwo Marina we can visit dolphins and penguins, sea lions, exotic birds, South American caimans and snakes. The facility has the only dolphinarium and ice penguinarium in Andalusia.
Visitors can also live unique experiences such as an encounter with dolphins, an encounter with penguins or a swim with sea lions.
There are three self-service restaurants with a varied gastronomic offer of meats, fish, salads, pastas, vegetables and desserts; the Cafeteria offers a wide range of sweets, ice cream, sandwiches, snacks, as well as typical tapas and portions of Andalusian cuisine, ice cream, drinks such as slushies, juices and soft drinks.
