Did you know?

Porto D'Abrigo, established by Zoomarine in 2002, serves as Portugal's first Rehabilitation Center for Marine Species, focusing on rescuing, rehabilitating, and releasing marine animals in collaboration with the Portuguese Institute for Nature Conservation and Biodiversity.

Zoomarine collaborates with esteemed institutions such as the Marine Megafauna Foundation and universities like the University of Évora and the Royal Veterinary College, University of London, to support conservation efforts and raise awareness about threatened marine species.

Environmental initiatives like the 'Montanha Verde' operation, launched by Zoomarine's 'Together We Protect' philosophy, have planted over 134,000 trees across eight Algarve municipalities since 2016, promoting community involvement in preserving natural landscapes.

In addition to the ‘Montanha Verde’ Operation, Zoomarine initiated the 'Praia Limpa' Operation, focused on cleaning beaches and engaging volunteers in protecting the ocean. This annual event symbolically kicks off the bathing season, emphasizing the importance of safeguarding the marine heritage.

Zoomarine actively participates in mitigating the environmental impact of invasive species, particularly terrapins. Through education and support, the park discourages the release of exotic terrapins into the wild and facilitates the rehabilitation and return of injured or sick native terrapins.

Access was easy, navigation around the park was easy. The place is very clean, from the grounds to the toilets. This park is very well maintained and kept at very high standards. We had a great family day, enjoying the tides and slides. Money well spent. We will be back again.

The experience at the Aqua Park was unforgettable, as there are many attractions for all age groups. The organization was impeccable. The staff was young and friendly, and we were made to feel very welcome. We took some unforgettable photos. We didn’t have to wait very long in line for the attractions. The kids were happy and pleasantly tired. The restaurant was good; there was a variety of options on the menu. We tried the *fish spa*—a pleasant and beneficial experience. The parrots were the highlight; it was incredible. :) I wholeheartedly recommend this park, as you’ll lose track of time and fun is 100% guaranteed. Thank you, and keep striving for the best.

We spent the summer in Portugal as a family. We were enchanted by the size of the park. There was so much beauty, nature, and friendliness everywhere. We had such a wonderful time that we decided to come back. And the purchase we made on Headout made our visit so much easier. Since we’re from Brazil and don’t have this kind of service there, we were extremely pleased with how convenient it was. Keep up the great work.
