Mundomar Zoo

Mundomar is an animal park located in Benidorm on Spain’s Costa Blanca, focusing on marine mammals, birds and reptiles. It offers animal presentations, keeper-led encounters and educational displays aimed primarily at family audiences.

The park’s main attractions are scheduled shows featuring dolphins and sea lions, as well as bird demonstrations and smaller animal exhibits. Facilities are sized for day visits and are commonly combined with nearby leisure attractions in Benidorm.

Mundomar was developed as a specialist animal park serving the tourist market of Benidorm and the surrounding Alicante province, with a program of daily shows and visitor experiences.

The park sits in the coastal resort town of Benidorm in the Valencian Community, adjacent to other tourist facilities and water parks on the city’s western outskirts.

• Shows and encounters: Daily animal presentations and close-interaction experiences with dolphins and sea lions are the park’s principal visitor draws, typically scheduled throughout the day.

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.

• 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.
