Overview

Rancho Texas Lanzarote Park is a themed zoological and water park located in Puerto del Carmen, modeled after the American Old West. The park features a diverse animal collection, including white tigers, pumas, komodo dragons, and American bison. Visitors can attend scheduled educational demonstrations involving birds of prey, sea lions, and parrots. The facility includes a water park section equipped with slides and swimming pools designed for all ages. Several themed areas recreate frontier-style settings, such as gold mines and traditional Texas ranches. A significant portion of the park is dedicated to conservation and the breeding of endangered species. Guests can interact with animals during supervised sessions held throughout the day. The layout integrates rocky Lanzarote landscapes with landscaped gardens and enclosures. Its position near the coast provides views of the Atlantic Ocean while maintaining a secluded desert-theme atmosphere.

Insider tips

Bring swimwear and a towel early in the day to secure sunbeds in the water park section.

Check the daily presentation schedule upon arrival, as show times rotate seasonally.

Wear comfortable, closed-toe walking shoes to navigate the uphill gravel paths.

Apply high-SPF sunscreen regularly, as the park offers limited natural shade in the open animal enclosures.

What to avoid

Attempting to see every animal presentation in one day without planning, and arriving late, which often misses the primary bird flight demonstrations.

Etiquette

Proper swimming attire is mandatory for water slides; maintain respectful distances from animal enclosures and refrain from feeding wildlife.
