Essentials about the World of Birds Wildlife Sanctuary and Monkey Park in brief

This zoo is an absolute highlight for bird lovers (but also for animal fans in general). With about 3,000 birds from about 300 bird species, World of Birds Wildlife Sanctuary and Monkey Park is the largest bird park in all of Africa and one of the largest in the world. In addition, the zoo, designed as a tropical garden, is also home to about 7o other species of reptiles and mammals. The zoo, which covers over four hectares, is located in the town of Hout Bay, which is only about 10 kilometers south of Cape Town, and attracts over 100,000 visitors each year.

The wildlife at the World of Birds Wildlife Sanctuary and Monkey Park

The World of Birds Park is a great experience especially for families with children, because the more than 100 birdhouses allow a very close contact with the animals. In many places of the park, the animals run and fly around freely and can thus be observed and photographed at close range.

In addition to the feathered animals, the zoo also houses some smaller mammals and reptiles. Among the monkeys, baboons, marmosets and tamarins are at home here. There are also meerkats, porcupines and badgers to see, as well as an area with snakes, iguanas and turtles. Children will enjoy the petting enclosure with turtles and guinea pigs, where they can touch and pet the animals.
