- Joanna D6 contributionsWe stopped to take a walk around the park in Benalmádena. It was worth stopping to walk around. The park is beautiful and had many seating areas.Written 8 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Rae0808Birmingham, UK29 contributionsBeautiful place. Bars, restaurants and shops all good quality. Only one downside. Alot of unmanned ticket stands for boat trips ? We could scan the QR code but we wish there was more information on the trips such as were to get on boat and times.Written 5 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Rae0808Birmingham, UK29 contributionsAbsoutly loved this ! Quite scary at first though😄 views at the top amazing, was cloudy for us so we were actually in the clouds at the top.
Make sure you wear proper non slip shoes. Verys slippery uneven sufaces walkng around the top of mountain
Bird of prey show looks good but it was too cold for us up there that day.Written 5 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We took a picnic and sat overlooking the large pond, which has turtles swimming around in it, it's quite lovely. There is a children's park and public art, a cafe and toilets and also in the park is a public library. The cactus garden in there is awesome with some amazing cacti. There are roosters, parakeets and chickens living wild and also a lot of pigeons. Well, it's worth a visit if you're in Benalmadena.Written 13 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- holidayobsessedUK330 contributionsWe had a lovely time here. As soon as we walked in I was blown away by the number of butterflies flying. So many species. Lots of beautiful little zebra pinches too along with 2 large tortoises just happily ambling along. Lovely greenery and flowers. Its not huge but doesn't need to be, we spent ages just wandering and looking. Very peaceful experience. The cafe is also lovely.
And it's in a gorgeous area near a Buddhist stupa (yes really) and fabulous viewpoint.Written 26 February 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We are both animal lovers and had great fun looking at the different species up close. The place is relatively small, but that was good for us because we didn’t want to walk all over the place. We also knew this beforehand so we weren’t disappointed. We watched a nice little bird show, where the parrots and tucans flew over us. Nice for the young kids. We also saw dolphins, sloth and penguins, to name a few. Very few people as this was off season, which was comfortable. A nice place to spend a couple of hours with kids.Written 28 February 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Pub Monster NeilLiverpool, UK86,758 contributionsCarvajal Beach ( Playa De Carvajal ) is a beautiful beach I always enjoy visiting on any holiday I take to this sun drenched resort.
A beautiful beach,well maintained, golden sand,beach amenities, gentle waves and not overcrowded, there's great chiringuito's along the beachfront, all in all its a great beach to check out if you're planning a holiday to Fuengirola.Written 2 June 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The staff does speak English & the show is performed in Spanish & English. Great audience participation! They bring all the birds to you to hold. Also, they bring kids up to the stage to participate! We sat right up front which I liked. The 3 times of the shows were 1, 2:30 & 4 in mid Feb. check website before paying for the expensive cable car(33€ 2 ppl RT) before coming up! There is a free WC in the cafe. Careful though bc the last cable car leaves down at 1715(if you go to 4p show & talk to staff)Written 21 February 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
