How to Get to Mundomar #

Mundomar is in Benidorm (next to the Aqualandia complex). By car from Alicante take the AP‑7 or the coastal N‑332 north to Benidorm - the drive is roughly 45 km (about 40-50 minutes depending on traffic). From Benidorm town centre the park is only a short taxi or local bus ride; it’s also walkable (about 2 km, roughly a 25-30 minute walk) from the central area.

Tips for Visiting Mundomar #

  • Arrive just before the first dolphin/sea‑lion show and pick a seat near the front - the main show is the busiest part of the day and early attendance avoids the midday rush.
  • Buy a combined Mundomar + Aqualandia ticket or use public buses into Benidorm to avoid hunting for on‑street parking; combo tickets often save queueing time on busy days.
  • Ask staff about scheduled animal‑encounter times at the smaller enclosures (parrots, otters and meerkats) - these quieter experiences are often missed by visitors who stay only for the headline shows.
