There are over three thousand animals to see roaming within the one million square metres of desert, forest and wetland landscapes at Oasis Park Fuerteventura. On the east coast of the island, just outside the town of La Lajita, you’ll find a world of wildlife to explore, as well as a botanical garden that includes Europe’s largest cactus garden. You can expect a packed day of sightings in savannah-style enclosures with giraffes, African elephants and cheetahs, and visit the park’s tropical wetlands to share a smile with the resident Nile crocodiles. The park has recreated the canopies of the Madagascan forest, too, where you can take part in a special lemur experience – you’ll wander through their habitat as friendly, inquisitive ring-tailed lemurs play and jump freely around – and sometimes on – you. With regular bird of prey and sea lion shows as well, there’s something for curious kids and adventurous adults alike on a wild day out here.
