Address: Parque de la Paloma s/n, 29630 Benalmádena, Málaga, Spain
Tucked into the heart of Benalmádena, Selwo Marina brings the wild wonders of Latin America’s coastlines to the Costa del Sol. It’s the only park of its kind in Andalucía, offering face-to-face moments with dolphins, sea lions, penguins, and exotic birds—all in beautifully recreated natural habitats. It’s kid-friendly, ideal for couples, and full of interactive, educational fun that goes way beyond your average aquarium.
But Selwo Marina isn’t just about entertainment—it’s a hub for conservation, research, and serious ocean love. Behind the scenes, the team is part of global breeding programs for endangered species and runs initiatives to protect marine biodiversity. From dolphin talks to eco-awareness workshops, everything here is designed to inspire visitors to care about the planet—and remind us all that oceans aren’t just a view, they’re a responsibility.
