The Hollow (La Hondonada)

This area is for exhibitions of exotic birds brought in from the Amazon and South America. We’ll see these exotic birds in their natural environment.

Icy Island (Isla de Hielo)

This is the first icy penguinarium in Andalusia with the most complete collection of penguins of the European zoos. This penguinarium replicates the natural environment of these lovely and amusing birds. The facility is fully glazed to be able to observe from all angles how these penguins live, both outside the water and under.

The Amazon (Amazonia)

This area is dedicated to the Amazon rainforest with both flora and fauna brought in from this abundant river. The Amazon facility has two rooms, one with aquariums that recreate the waters and territories of this river, and the other is formed by aqua-terrariums, where as well as different types of fish, there are also different species of amphibians and reptiles that coexist in the river and its surroundings.

The Amazon area also offers important vegetation, and has a colony of leafcutter ants, where the visitor will be able to observe the whole process from the inside of the ant’s nest.
