Krazy World and the Algarve Zoo
Krazy World is a theme park near the Algarve village of Algoz, a few kilometres north of Albufiera. If you are on holiday with the kids, then places like this can be a godsend, providing a day of children’s entertainment. Not as extensive as Zoomarine, but cheaper and still good fun.
Apart from being a theme park, with mini-golf, a petting farm, pony rides and a fairground, it is also home to the Algarve Zoo which is home to reptiles, snakes and the like.
Attractions
Krazy World is home to Amazonia, which is part of the Algarve Zoo. It consists of various areas for crocodiles, alligators, turtles and also has a Reptilium housing snakes, iguanas and the like. There is also an arena where there are daily live shows with the crocs, alligators and snakes.
There are two mini golf courses. The first is the Krazy Golf, 18 holes of mini-golf with obstacles to avoid, and there is the newer Jungle golf course. This is an 18-hole course set in prehistoric times.
The petting farm is a bit more exotic than you would find in the UK. Instead of goats and rabbits, you’ll find lamas, deer, wallabies and even camels to make friends with. A favourite with children are the pony rides, where the trained staff will supervise children’s rides round the corral.
In the heat of the day, a swim in the large swimming pool may be in order. There are sun-beds around it for your use. Next to the pool is a children’s playground, with the usual swings and seesaws. There is also some adventure climbing equipment for them to play around on, while you relax with some cool refreshment.
When you’ve got your energy back there is also a small children’s fairground with a few rides to entertain them until its time to leave.
There are a number of bars throughout the park where you can quench your thirst. If you’re hungry then you can try Marianna's Pizzaria serving pizzas, pastas and various other meals, as well as snacks all day long.
