Loro Parque was the first park in Europe to have a parrot show in free flight, and was also the first zoo in the world to receive the “Animal Embassy” certificate in 2008.
Among many other world-class shows, we can highlight the following:
• Aquarium: With a total of 1,200,000 liters of water that feed aquariums and are obtained directly off the Atlantic Ocean. Twelve themed exhibits in its facilities, probably one of the most impressive aquariums you could see.
• Dolphinarium: It was inaugurated in 1987 and is considered as one of the most modern venues in the world and whose pools hold some 7 million liters of sea water. These intelligent and beautiful bottlenose dolphins will astound you with their acrobatics defying the laws of gravity, as well as playing music, jumping on water and spinning and twirling in an impressive array of skills that will be everyone’s delight.
• Sea Lions: In this show, sea lions will make you laugh practically from the beginning to the end. Few animals show a capacity for as much fun as the family of sea lions (13 sea lions, 5 males and 8 females) that will make you fall in love with them.
• Loro Show: A show that began its journey more than 40 years ago and has been improved over the years, becoming today a show of world fame. All kinds of brightly colored parrots that will fly around you will delight the viewer.
• Natura vision: An impressive cinema that is under the mirror dome of the Park and is dedicated to environmental awareness through the magic of documentary film.
• Orca Ocean: Considered the most innovative and modern facility in the world to house Orcas. You will enjoy this impressive show, the one of “OrcaOcean” where you will be surprised of the strength and agility of these impressive animals.
• Planet Penguin: Discover Antarctica in Planet Penguin that houses an iceberg with more than 200 penguins. Real snow, a huge iceberg and hundreds of penguins await you in this world of ice. Considered as the best human reproduction of the natural living conditions of these curious and fun animals.
It should also be noted that over the years Loro Parque has become a spectacular tropical garden and throughout the park there are numerous species of tropical and subtropical plants as well as a magnificent collection of more than 2,000 palm trees brought from around the world, but also can be highlighted by its beauty, the following corners within the park itself:
• Orquidearium, with a large representation of orchids from all over the world.
• The cactus garden.
• The garden of dragos, endemic trees of the Macaronesian zone and Atlantic coast of North Africa, known for their great longevity. (The dragon of Icod de Los Vinos with about 1,000 years).
• The Jungle, which is the oldest part of the park.
That’s why we are sure that plants and botany lovers will be amazed by the visit.
