Zone Norden

Auf Teneriffa fällt es leicht, sich zu amüsieren, sei es abends oder tagsüber, und das gilt für jede Altersgruppe. Das Freizeitangebot reicht von der Offerte für an Wissenschaft oder Natur Interessierte, die den Botanischen Garten und den Loro Parque im Norden, oder die Kolonien von Walfischen im Süden der Insel besuchen können, bis zum Spaß im Siam Wasserpark und anderen Attraktionen, über Möglichkeiten, die mehr in Richtung Sport gehen, wie etwa Wanderungen, für die ein breit angelegtes Netz an beschilderten Wegen zur Verfügung steht. Die Abende sind, aufgrund des milden Klimas, ganz besonders angenehm auf Teneriffa. Spielkasinos, wo man in einem äußerst eleganten Rahmen sein Glück versuchen kann, beispielsweise das Casino Puerto de la Cruz, Restaurants, Festsäle mit internationalen Shows, Diskotheken und Pubs mit Live Musik sind nur einige der Möglichkeiten, die dem Besucher jeden Abend offen stehen.

Loro Parque opened its doors for the first time in 1972. Located in Puerto de la Cruz, the park is set in 135,000 m2 of parkland and is a delight to young and old alike. The park soon became famous for its collection of parrots, the largest in the world. In 1994, the Loro Parque Foundation was also established for the purpose of protecting endangered birds. This subtropical park is home to a great variety of species, living in enclosures that closely represent their natural habitats. These species include tigers, gorillas, alligators, chimpanzees, pelicans, jaguars, flamingos, sea lions, Koi carps, Titi monkeys and even a Galapagos Giant tortoise.
One of the park’s star features is Europe’s largest dolphinarium and its amazing dolphin show. The Parrot Show, the first of its kind in Europe, takes place in an Arab-style marble palace. The sea-lion show is an opportunity to see how these intelligent mammals perform their tricks with incredible agility. The underwater world is also present at the marvellous aquarium where over 3,000 species co-exist, and where there is an impressive 18-metre-long shark tunnel. 
Other attractions worthy of mention are Chimpland (created at Loro Parque in 1998), which is home to four adult chimpanzees and their young, and the glass cinema dome, where visitors can enjoy an unforgettable experience thanks to the advanced Showscan system and digital sound.
Planet Penguin was opened in December 1999 and is the world’s largest penguinarium. Thanks to the considerable technology involved in reconstructing their Antarctic habitat, 170 penguins from the South Pole live alongside tropical penguins and contentedly go about their lives in this enclosure, a perfect replica of their natural habitat.  Loro Parque has received several important national and international awards including the Prince of Asturias Award for Business Excellence, presented for the first time to a Canary Island business, and the Gold Medal for Importance to Tourism. 
In June 2006, the new attraction Orca Ocean was inaugurated on the arrival of four orcas from the bred-in-captivity programme of Seaworld Orca Ocean,.
