A Visit to Terra Natura


Last week my son and his family had a week's holiday with us in La Nucia, near Benidorm.

One afternoon he visited Terra Natura, the animal theme park and zoo, with his wife and two year old daughter.

Although the admission price was 23 euros per adult, he found, by booking the tickets through a local travel / ticket agent he was able to obtain a 4 euro discount per ticket. Children under four are allowed free entry.

The agent advised that as the walk around the park took 4 hours and to take hats for sun protection, plenty of water and a pushchair for the child. Also that there were plenty of places to stop for a drink or snack.

By the way, tourists from outside Benidorm can find the park off the AP7 motorway, Junction 65A. It is well signposted from there.

Car parking cost 4 euros.






The attractions include as many as 1,500 animals from all over the world, particularly, Europe, Asia and America. In addition there is a reptile house and birds of prey can be seen in flight. There are a range of shows, entertainment and adventure activities as you walk around.



My 2 year old granddaughter had a great time and never stopped talking about for hours afterwards. Oh, yes, it does take about 4 hours to get around and see everything.

They cannot wait to go around again the next time they are here - high recommendation indeed!
